Painting Stock Rims

[Alexdeluca]

I was thinking about getting my stock rims painted black. I was wondering about how much it would cost and if anbody had pictures if they had theirs done.

Thanks

Actually you want to have them powdercoated. Expect to pay around 60.00 per wheel for black.

look for a powdercoater in your area. Go to google, and type in Florida powdercoating

This new film by Alsa is interesting. I'm not sure how hard it is to install/fold/heat to shape it onto a part, but they mentioned wheels in it somewhere. At $2 per square foot, it's not cheap, but not too bad for small parts.

I agree with this (dont know about the film stuff) it will look much nicer and last a long time.

If your looking for a cheap way out, I painted a set of steel wheels for my Ranger with some primer and rattle can gloss black. They looked good, but I sold them after only driving with them for a few months so I dont know about longevity. My brother in Pittsburgh paints his wheels black with good automotive paint and they seem to last ok..

I would look into powder coating tho if it was mine. After seeing this I might get my wheels powder coated
