    Here are the before pictures of the same wheels, I would recommend Chimera for anyone looking to refinish their wheels, very good prices. I'll post up pics of the finished wheels when I get them back.

    Don't mean to thread jack but 6 months with no reply leaves this open.

    I can have you wheels sandblasted if want.
    PM me if you are interested. Cost based on size and type of paint/coating on wheels.

    Here are some pics of my wheels.

    Nice job on the wheels! I may consider this for the future...

    Which Mazda comes with 18x8 wheels stock?!? Is that a CX7 wheel or something?

    Do you just sandblast, or do you powdercoat too?

    I pm'd about sand blasting and powder coating.

    Even if they don't do it much anymore, it would be nice to get a response rather than nothing...

    All I can do is sand blast. But if you have your wheels sandblasted before you have another company powdercoat them it will be significantly cheaper. If fact you could call and get a price for both preped wheels or fresh off the car wheels and see what the powdercoater tells you.
