Hi Brent -

The last set that I had powder coated (Performance Coatings in Jonesboro, GA) was at $65/wheel with them supplying the powder (black at that time for my Town Sedan). This time however, when I checked on pricing, their quote was at $100/wheel with me supplying the powder (I have Hessian Blue and Tacoma Cream from "Model A Wheel Colors" for a SW fordor and SW Cabriolet) - just wasn't quite prepared for a 50% price increase on these. Potentially this would represent a minimum of 12 wheels, but I also have a Mullins Trailer that I was planning to have a pair of matching wheels done for this one as well - revised total of 14 wheels. Apparently the quote was not affected by the number of wheels to be done. I had also considered possibly doing another 6 wheels for another future roadster project, but not at these prices. I'm thinking that painted wheels may be in my future once these are done?!?
