Powder coated rims????

Instead of going out and buying new rims i just want to powder coat my stock rims. Would the powder coat hold up? How much should i expect to pay? and how do i go about finding a place to get it done?

Post this in your regional section and look for some shop feedback. Powder coating isnt the tell all solution to changing your wheels color. To get a long lasting powder coat expect to pay some good money.

powder coating has a pretty durable finish as it's baked on . It should outlast painted wheels, but I think bang for the buck wise painting the wheels would be more cost effective as you'll probably get bored of them and want to change them later....I say paint them
