Price to have powder coat my wheels? Anyone have an idea of what it would cost or should cost?

I would like to go with the titanium grey or a light brown color almost like the brake dust after a couple days of driving....

Thanks!

What conditions are you driving in? I do quite a bit of skiing and my ST II's do well enough in any situation that I would put the X5 into...

I never saw a point of having an exclusive winter setup unless all you do is drive in SERIOUS snow.

My year around rims...hell, I don't even know what style wheel they are. Even though they're small, I do like them since I don't see a lot of them and I like the styling on the ends of the spokes where they meet the rim. Sorry for the cheesy pics, these are all I have of them on this laptop :D

Eventually I'll get some 21's or 22's for summer like in the last picture.

On the High Side - 230 per wheel to powdercoat.
On the reasonable side - $125 Per Wheel.

I have seeen some places that range go as low as $75-$80.

Just due your homework when powdercoating like anything else.
Wheels are NOT meant to be BAKED at high temps ....and oftentimes they will do just that to make the powder flow...
