Try the following it is mine.

Powdercoat is the only way to go. I made the mistake of painting them the first time. The second time I had them powdered because the paint just didnt hold up.

I had them put a clear coat on as well but its not necessary.

I also have red as you can see by the sig

How much does it cost to powder coat a set of rims?

Depends on if you want them clear coated or if they need to strip or sandblast anything prior to powdering them,

Generally you can get them done from $40-$60 per wheel or a little more with the clear.

Sandblasting migh cost an additional $60-$70 total such as if you had a previous color you needed taken off. Or stripping off a previous finish so they can turn out better might cost around 70-80 total.

But just for all 4 wheels you should be able to get it done for around $300.00

Then of course youll need to pay for them to be remounted.
