Wheels painting?
 

I'm looking to get my stock wheels painted black until I could get some nice after market. Any recommendations of shop (reasonable price)? It would be around columbia area. Thanks

I highly recommend you look into plastidip, especially if its a temporary thing.

you can DIY in about a day dude. I did mine.

Cody have you had tires changed since painting your wheels? I just had mine done yesterday and the paint got fvcked up. Was told before hand it was possible due to the DIY paint job.

I'd also go with plasti dip if you just want them black. It'll cost you like $20 and a couple hours work.

I'm not handy to do it by myself. But I did the plasti dip and there was so much brake dust, wheels turned grey after a while.

That's funny because my brake dust has turned my grey wheels to almost black :icon17:

I noticed that with blades's wheels. I bet its gotta be a pain trying to clean them up.

It's much more durable than paint or plastidip.

Off plasti dip, yes. Off my painted wheels it's not that hard.

No mine is just fine. The only things that have damaged it are rocks/salt from winter/ and where my wheel weights were at for balancing. the wheel weights are tough to get around unless you plan on ripping them off. But as for the other two If I had clear coated them they would be fine. Clear is cheap as well.


Tony I would find someone local who would do it privately if you supplied paints and ****. A good price would be $200-250 for a non shop to do it. Check at your local dealer most of them have a local private wheel fixer/painter.

I did all 4 wheels of mine for $60 in supplies.

Also that being said..since im going to be doing some serious shows this year I am going to have them professionally powdercoated with the same design.

Figure finishing for powder or Mike if you want to ship your wheels.

Make sure you have the wheels clearcoated too.

Yeah, if you dont have them clear coated, you're wasting your money. The clear coat basically locks in what you have done, i.e. paint/powder coat.

Unless some dipsh*t forgets how to use a tire balancing machine and wrecks your wheel.
