Alloy Wheel Powdercoating @ £1 An Inch! - FAO West Yorkshire Lads!!
Only suitable section i could find to post this, so here goes!
Had my old clio wheels done by them!
400 colours available, for £1 an inch! So 4 16" wheels was £64.
the more harder colours such as chrome etc. are £1.50 inch
CAS Coatings, Old Mill, Victoria Road, Eccleshill, Bradford BD2 2BH, about 10 mins from Leeds Bradford Airport, little door on a sidestreet! Phone number 01274 634493
Thoroughly recommended!

Don't do it !
I know two people who have had wheel failures after powder coating !
PM for details.....
P.S. LSN Coatings did a set of four 17" STI alloys for me for £100. Google is your friend.

Had mine done, looked ok, but first time airborne
wheels started wobbling. On inspection found cracks propagating on spokes, (sti 8 gold wheels). All four of them.
Suppose if you drive like a "girl" you might be ok.
I'd been airborne many times before coating and never had any problems with same wheels.
A mate had same prob, too much of a coincidence for me.

I would defo say it was due to powder coating in some way. Also my mates did the same immediatley after coating. Maybe some companies do it in different ways.
