Powder coating in Northern VA

I'd bet they need the tires dismounted...I doubt they invested in tire mounting and balancing equipment.

That's what I'm thinking.

I really want to powde rcoat the wheels gunmetal. I think it'd look good on red, especially sitting on Eibachs with some spacers...

I'd be very surprised if they would dismount and remount for you. As a brake caliper specialist, I handle disassembly and reassembly, but I don't know any other powdercoaters on any of my powdercoat forums who do that, or any disassembly/reassembly. I did offer a local customer to borrow my tahoe and take his wheels to get dismounted when he dropped the car off though, but taking 2-3 hours out of the schedule is just way too counter productive.
