Painting Rally Wheels

[71-C10]

Not trying to highjack this thread, but I'm in the middle of powder coating VS painting. I'm running rally's from a'76 on my '71 and they are in need of refinishing. A local powder coating company will clean, blast, powder coat and everything in between for $65.00 a wheel. I drop them off, and pick them up when they're done. I have no personal experience with powder coating, so I don't know if the price is good deal or not. I don't know how powder coating is compared to paint. The picture TX Firefighter posted looks great. I have contacted a local body shop that will paint them, but I have not got an estimate yet.

That's a low price for powdercoating.

powdercoating is very durable and at 50-75 per wheel pricy for a limited budget


but for an everyday driver a quart of rustoleum is 10 dollars good enough to keep them the same color with touchups to look good for many many years as you use the vehicle

really up to you 300 for the powdercoat or 10 for the old fahioned paint and touchups// the fact is very few will really notice on a daily driver

My trim rings gouged the crap out of my powder coated wheels, that's why I went with paint.
