If your willing to do a drive to Downey. I've taken my wheels, valve covers and other miscellaneous stuff from the engine bay to get powder coated at Reliable powder coating in Downey. Wait time is usually 2-3 days and they sand blast your stuff before hand. Price for wheels are usually around 50-65 per wheel depending on color. Never had an issue with them and I've been dealing with them since my civic days year 2009 +

Don't powder coat track wheels. The curing process partially anneals heat treated race wheels. Heavy, un-heat treated street bling/hard park wheels OK. Lightweight flow formed T-6 heat treated race wheels, No.

Do you need to take the tires off the wheels first before taking it to the place in Downey?

Gas powder coating in Simi Valley is decent.
