Powdercoat rim shop in nj

i cant seem to find a decent powdercoating shop, i want to get my 17s powdercoated black but the places i tried over here want around $80-100 per rim, thats kinda too much, i know bout the places in PA, but i dont want to ship nor drive several hours just for a shop. Anyone know a place i guess not too far from the newark area. thanks alot for your time.

Did you try Johnsons Powercoating in Burlington NJ? Not sure how much they want but they do good work.

I use Pioneer metal in Franklinville for all my powder coat needs. But for rims they are $75 -$100 also!!!

$80 isn't bad if they do quality work. You don't want to have a crappy job, then have to blast the wheels and do it all over again..

LPC does 17s for $60 a wheel, even though they aren't close.
Round trip to there is 126 miles, and est. 20 miles/galllon, you would use a little over 6 gallons of gas * $3.75/gallon for 93 = $23.63 in gas.

$80/wheel * 4 wheels = $320

LPC $60/wheel * 4 wheels = $240 + $23.63 in gas = 263.63

Saving $56.37 and I've seen their powdercoating, they do good work.
