Low Temp Wheel Powdercoating Shop Recommendations?
Any recommendations for powdercoating shops that has experience baking wheels at lower temperatures?
Looking to refinish my STi BBS forged wheels. Yes, I've read about the risks of powdercoating forged wheels (especially BBS), but seems like baking/curing at a lower temperature might work.

The only shop I trust to redo wheels is Wheel Techniques in Santa Clara
Over the years, they've done some pretty wild stuff for me

Yes, low temp only way to do forged IMO. I had my WRX rims previously powder coated at Spray Technology in Santa Clara. They took a bit longer, but did a great job. Have also had rims repaired by Wheel Techniques and like them also.
