If thats all 4 wheels. Hell yea! My girl wants to get her Scion done, if thats the price i'm taken her car over there.
One of her friends was gonna "hook her up" over at Pauls Powdercoating for 100, when he normall charges 150 a wheel. WTF?

standard powder coating price is $10 per inch, so 18" wheels would be roughly $180

call that guy and ask for a quote...a friend told gave me his link.

powder coat them:tu: you will be much happier in the long run bcuz they have more of a glossy look than the painted, i got mine done at Star tire for 150 a piece, with a polished lip

I had mine done by Star Tire, I had some machine work done on mine. So I paid $160/wheel with the powdercoating.

I agree. I love Enduros work, and they are a lil cheaper. But i have a feeling Star might be a closer place for you so i'd go there. Plus people here seem satisfied with them!
