| Painting Rims
In a few months im planning to refinish my rims, hopefully matte black or just black whatever. I wanted to know if there are any places you guys can recommend and to give me an idea of how much it would cost to do matte black and/or normal?

I'm getting my wheels done right now... They can do a semi-gloss black for 300 for 19's for everything... I'm getting a custom color done, and its gonna cost me $400 for everything. They sandblast your wheels, and send it out for powedercoating... I will post pics when they are done, they had to order my color and it takes 5 days to get it... they do great sandblasting work. The business is owned by a married couple and they run a good operation.
some pics of their work are in the craigslist ad... http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/pm...425641189.html

Nobody wanted to mention Panther Precision Machine? They do everything in house, i've had a full set of wheels refinished by them (repairing bends and repainting every wheel) and I have had one wheel which was bent fixed by them.
They do awesome work and if you want it done right, quickly, then they're the guys to go to

Don't know about the dish. But I had two rims that were bent and two that needed the faces re-finished, lots and lots of work done to them, aswell as all painted. I think it's a little over a $100 for paint, maybe like 120/wheel? I'm really not sure, give them a call
For me it cost about 7 bills and I got a bit of a "deal" on them, but I had alot of work done http://www.pantherwheels.com/
give em a ring, i've never heard a bad thing about them
