Places that powdercoat wheels

:Anyone know anywhere in the Tacoma area that powdercoats wheels? I found a place on craigslist but its in Marysville and I dont feel like driving that far.

Plan on getting coilovers soon and want to powdercoat my stock wheels probably a matte bronze, not sure yet tho.

Thanks in advance.

What type of wheels are you getting powder coated? Are they forged wheels? If so you need to make sure the powder coater uses low-temp powder and does not let the temp of the wheel get close to 325 degrees. This will cause the aluminum to anneal making the wheel brittle.

Thanks for the info! I was actually thinking about powder coating my stock 18's but im not sure yet. I might just keep them how they are until I get new wheels.

Just check and see if they are forged. I think the 18" sport wheels for the '03-'04 are.
