Last week we had our wheels sandblasted and powder coated. I was surprised at how inexpensive this was, only $45 per wheel. Here's the before and after.http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj285/Jeepsmith/IMG_0618.jpg http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj285/Jeepsmith/IMG_0895.jpg

That looks pretty good. The local goodyear place here will blast and powder coat your rims either black or silver for $25 each.

Those are lookkin' good! :thumbsup:


Got my 16" J20 rims epoxy primed/painted white last year, tires walked off (long dissapointing story) so they're still not mounted, anyway that was $100 for all 4 I ran them through a auto blaster at work, but the painter hit them again to clean up a little more.

Nice. I was going to wirebrush the rims on my Chero and paint them with the hammered finish Rustoleum, but that looks nicer. Where's the rest of your hub btw?

I haven't put the hubs on yet because I have to paint the axle and replace ball joints, u-joints, bearings and brakes. Wheels were mounted temporarily so I could move the Jeep.
