Default Rim Resprays - Powder coat

Hey guys, i was just wondering i need to get me 4 rims fixed because the damages from the past owner. The rims hit kerbs nothing huge but it is very noticable, i am thinking of going to get em fixed with alliance rim repair, anyways i heard there not the best on powercoat and resprays so i gonna just get them to fix the rims and get em resprayed elsewhere. I was wondering if anyone on here had theres done by a mob in o'conner called Wheel Gleam.

O'conner is much closer for me too since im in the bibralake and melville area... or can anyone suggest any closer rim repairing workshops closer to my area that are quality

Regards Nathan

It looks like a good place to go is Perth Powder Coaters. Tim (Subastylin) will look after you, and he's a good bloke to deal with. If I remember correctly, someone on here got their rims blasted and coated for $280 (set)

i have used alliance before. Did an awsome job and quick turnaround, dropped them off on a sat and got them back the next thursday. Just turned up and left them without ringing

Cost $400 all up for fixing and powdercoat for 4 rims and centrecaps

My work contracts wheel repairs out to Alliance, and I've always been very impressed with what comes back to us after they've been repaired. Especially on the crazy machined finishes with pearl clearcoats and all that sort of stuff.

Had some work done by Diamond Powdercoaters in welshpool, $300 for a set of 17's or 18's - stripped and coated. They did a great job and within a reasonable turnaround time. I'd not hesitate to recommend them.
