Blimey! I paid about £330 to have five wheels painted recently. Darren

Tbf I've generally been quoted about £5-600 for blasting/prepping and painting a set of rims. 2011 110 USW

Yeah, I was hoping this would be less because they don't need blasting and prepping - they're brand new wheels with good quality primer already applied, so 'just' a blow over and bake...

I had five brand new Wolf wheels painted a year ago for £300. The most recent five were alloys and needed a refurb but the additional cost was really to paint the centre caps to match. £50-60 / wheel really is a typical going rate for this sort of thing, at least in Surrey which isn't known for being the cheapest part of the country!

Thanks Darren, I've just had another quote back and it lines up with your experience - £50 per wheel. That's a bit more like it...

Where are you getting them done Steve? I've got a set of 5 5" rims for my 88" to do, and I'm about to get a set of 569203 rims which are in primer but need painting. Not sure what to do with them, might put my KM2s on them but will need tubes, then swap my michelins into my Wolf rims (which could do with a repaint). 2011 110 USW

Got the new ANR wheels back from paint today and the tyres are fitted - very pleased with them. Not all fitted yet, but the spare is on the back door for starters...
Mmm deep dish loveliness!  Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge |

I painted mine last week, they were black, now sandstone..people think I've bought new wheels as they looked 'invisible' in black!

Thanks chaps! Just got them all on, but it’s a bit dark so pics to follow! Very pleased with them, very much complete the classic look I was aiming for.
Just checked out your newly painted wheels Greeni - love ‘em! 👍😍 |
