if you want them powder coated they have to be sandblasted/stripped of all paint/coatings...which adds cost to this project (either time or money)...if you want black go to a place that does large batches at a time of black (like place that does bulk industrial jobs of hundreds of parts) and ask to have them do your wheels (so have them stripped and ready) while they do of one of their batches....its worth a shot to save a bunch of money and they could do your wheels free if they really wanted to be nice! only drawback is you might not get your wheels back as quickly!

call around. im sure if you mention this your bound to find someone that will ease up the price! otherwise the earlier figure was right one about 60-80$ a wheel from what ive been quoted!
