Is $350 a good deal to powder coat my rims?
 

I was shopping around in Sacramento and I was quoted $350 at one shop circa matte black color. Another shop quoted me $385. Last shop said from $350-400. Are these reasonable prices?

I want a blue strip around the rims and the shops wanted an extra $100. Reasonable??

My solid colors were about $400. I was told the tape used to do the pin striping does not promote a clean transition (un even finish) and that it was difficult to make it perfectly circular owing to the tape does not like to bend. Just what I was told…….

I think it really depends on what you can find. I've powder coated 2 sets, first set was 18's flat black winter rims, cost me $350 and got them back in a week.

Randomly drove through an industrial district and saw another powder coater and asked him how much to do my stock 19' rays, he said $200 cash and he would sandblast first, took him 48 hours to have them back to me.

I was equally pleased with both sets but thrilled with the price and speed of the second set.

that is a good fair price.

Thanks Mike. Good to know.

That matches what I've been quoted from reputable PC vendors in the past

My powder coater here in Texas is 80-95 a wheel, depending on color. As for the stripe around the edge, you should get that hand pin striped. Quoates for that around here are roughly 25-50 for all 4 wheels.

yes...I would also suggest you buy vinyl for that blue strip and not get paint. If a rock hits the vinyl you just get your self a replacement strip...same if you curb your rim. Paint is a bigger pain to fix.

Fair price:tup: go for it

Not ridiculously over priced, but still a little high in my opinion..... We powdercoat a few sets of wheels a month satin (semi gloss) black, we charge $270 for all four

If the $350, includes dismount, mount, and balancing the wheels than go for. That's the same price that I given down here in LA. Oh and they strip the oe paint.

It does not include dismounting and remounting the tires.
