Recommend a shop to refinish rims?
 
The BRZ is put away for the season already and I picked up a used set of wheels for my 2nd car. Looking to get them refinished for next spring, anyone recommend a shop (in GTA east end Durham preferred but not mandatory) that isn't gonna completely drain my wallet? (I think I am just looking to get the current finish removed and repainted in white)

This company refinished my OEM 16" Accord wheels a couple of years ago, and did a really nice job. http://www.keystone-auto.ca/anglais/wheel_process.htm

IIRC, the price was around $100/wheel, and they turned out really nice. I dealt with the shop in Trenton.

Carcone does some pretty nice jobs with refinishes, as a body shop/mech guy I usually send me wheels to them to refinish and they are top notch. I will not tell you how much I pay because I'm a shop so I'll have a different pricing than you guys but it ranges around 100-250 depending on size

Hmm well these are Works wheels, not sure but keystone looks like its a rim exchange of some sort..

Was hoping for around $50 wheel.. guess I'm dreaming. Oh well the rims are in pretty good shape, I really just wanted a different colour, not worth spending another $400+ on.

Mebbe I will try plasti-dip for kicks.

Oh if you just want different colours then def use plastidip, they are so easy and the finishes are really good. They are around 13-15 a bottle, you'll only need like 1-1.5 bottles to do the whole set. If you would like some more unique colours then I think you would have to look online where some of the places have their exclusive colours
