Powder coating is good if you wanna pay the money for it and be without your car for awhile.

I looked around in Indianapolis for awhile and most of them are 200 to 350 and its 1 to 2 weeks turn around time. Thats if the rims are already separated from the tire. If not thats more money right there, not even sure if any of them offer that service


Costs me a few hours of time and 20 to 25 bucks to plastidip them and i can remove whenever i want. If done properly plasti dip looks pretty damn good.

Id love to powdercoat mine as i know for a fact i want them black and no other color. But its inconvenient and more money than i want to spend. I have other priorities that my extra cash goes to, my gf for,example.

So for 20 bucks i cant compain
