    Sorry no pics....flip phone and all that.....

    My wheels look rough...powder coat is flaking off big time. Anyone know of a good wheel source or is it just cheaper to get those sandblasted and recoated?

    There is a welding shop near me that powder coats wheels.

    My wheels cost around $500 to get blasted, powder coated, then clear powder coated. I thought it was a fair price for a local shop with a good reputation. They’ve lasted two winters so far and still look great so I guess they did a good job. But I’m nowhere close to WV, so I can’t speak for local pricing. Some guys have had them done for $50 a wheel, but I don’t know if would trust their work, TBH.

    If you decide to recoat them, research the powder coat shop really well. I had sliders and front winch bumper coated at an off road fab shop, looked great initially but has not held up. They may not have prepped them properly. After a couple years they were flaking and rust was coming through. I gave up on the powder coat, have since cleaned them up and spray painted.
    Better to have them done right for a little more $.
