I noticed some people have been repainting their stock rims instead of buying new ones. Do you guys know where I can have my wheels repainted (white)? And how much will it cost me?

Anyone can paint rims 4 u but do they do it well? Cuz I've seen a lot of rubbish paint jobs on rims which don't last. Aren't rims powder coated instead?

Powercoating stands more abuse and is the proper finish that most carmakers use for their rims.. Much more genuine and durable than paint.. My suggestion is trade ur rims with something that suits ur liking rather than repainting.. You dont want to de disappointed after spending some time and money on repainting them... Plus why would i want to ruin the original powder coat on the rims its a risk.. unless i kno what im doing

there are many places dat does powder coating for 30dhs a wheel as well, but the head ache is u need to remove the tires and give them jus the rims........jus check yellow pages and make some phone calls.
