    300 for all 4 isn't a bad price maniac. I went a few weeks ago and took my volks to get an estimate. I already have them stripped to bare metal and they were going to charge me 500+ for a standard color and 700+ for anything with chrome or flake

    haha, I would go somewhere else. I took mine to a place locally to me in WV called Comptons and they are a bunch of older guys so I don't think they would steal my uber JDM tyte yo volks. As far as price, you may want to have all the prep work done on your wheels first as that will cut the price in half at least.

    PM Milo over on WRXatlanta, he had his powdercoated black by someone locally who did it for very cheap and did a great job.

    I've heard that powdercoating rims weakens them but I'm not sure if this applies to cast or forged wheels. I cant remember.

    $300 depends on what they are doing. Some years back the shop in Gwinnet off of Steve Reynolds I believe past the rr tracks wanted about $70/wheel for everything...strip, cleaning and all. $45 if the wheel was already done. I know someone knows the shop name. I thought it was Pro?
