I am doing mine at Motorcepts in Queens. It'll cost me to power coat and machine the face of 19"s $185 per wheel. I can not say anything about the quality jet. I suggest to check with them. here is the #3478445363

Powdercoating for $185 per wheel is a bit pricey, since I bought my complete set of rims for $600 LOL

I was thinking somewhere along the lines of $100 or less just to powdercoat them in semi-gloss black.

YIKES!

$185 per wheel sounds like highway robbery. i just did some price checking out here in metro-Detroit to poweder coat a set of 19'' wheels....the prices ive recieved have been anywhere from $50 to $100 per wheel....and each place has tons of pics of their work....looks like the quality is solid.

id definitely shop around....hop on your local craigslist site and look for local shops....they usually advertise and have links to past work. happy hunting

That's $185 for powdercoating and getting the face machined.

Yes that's right $185 includes powercoating, machining the face dismounting, mounting
And road force balancing the tires. I'll report back to show how they will turn out in few days

Its a heist, try Papo's wheel and tire in Queens, they do it there, or Cross Island wheel and tire, they send it out both do good jobs

Lux motorwerks in jersey can do it for less than that and mount and balance them too.
I just did a couple sets of 19's for a project car and it ran $125 a wheel including mount/balance
