noby,
i usually pay 50-100$ per wheel depending on difficulty of the job. You guys get taxed pretty hard tho so i wouldn't be surprised if things were more expensive in sweden

FWIW - I paid $250 or so for the entire set lightly blasted and powder coated. And that included a full set of matching lugs too.

That price is high. Very high.

I used http://www.procryo.com

Good people. Porsche folks in fact. Fully certified Metallurgist on site. Highly recommended.

This is not sweden, its in the US I got quotod.

In sweden we pay for powdercoated about $300 including blasting, thats why I asked if that is normal price in US to pay $150 per wheel, I guess answer is NO.
