I paid $55 a wheel $220 for all 4 of them. They sand blast them down, bake them at a real high temp then coat them, then they bake it on.

if you are doing them gloss black i will go in with you with a bunch of my motor and turbo parts. it will make it alot cheaper for ya. i highly recommend PowderTech in Orange Park on the industrial loop. John gives great pricing and does awesome work. plus he turns them out quick.

Thats about average as long as they are not chrome.


PC'd rims are great cause they are easy to clean

i put a small bend in my 18" TTII wheel a few years ago and had them repaired by a reputable wheel repair shop. the wheel crumbled on the highway north of Fort Worth and the car slid for about 2 football fields on the frame. ruined the car's frame. when you bend aluminum it pretty much compromises the grain structure of metal and will ultiamtely fail. if you need an extra rim i will let you borrow a spare 16" firebird wheel i have in my shop. yours may not be as dramatic as mine but who knows.

I seen the chrome powdercoat on a website as well. I highly doubt it will look like real chrome though.

I need to get 2 valve covers powdercoated. So if you guys do end up doing this let me know so i can get in on the deal with ya'll.
