Powder coat stock rims?

[mfran12345]

Has anyone powder coated their stock sport rims black? I don’t like how the silver looks with my sting gray truck. They would look better black. It is cheaper than new rims and I’m not ready to lift or go bigger tires yet. I saw on the JL forum though that sometimes the rims warp. Has anyone done it, pros or cons? Thanks

Let us know what you are quoted to powder coat your wheels.

One place said $75 per rim to sand blast and powder coat. Additional $20 to dismount and remount tire on rim. Have to call around to a few more.

I was thinking of doing this exact thing .....what type of places are you calling? And how big a tire can we mount on them?

You can buy similarly styled wheels for $130/wheel in the color you want from quadratec.com.

I would try to find a place that will buy your wheels. Say you are able to sell your current wheels for $50 each. Buy those aftermarket wheels for $130/wheel and the price difference will be the same as painting over the wheels you have now.
