Place to get wheels completely refinished

So anyone know of a place to get some wheels completely refinished?

I am in the Tacoma area, and work in Redmond.

Story is that I bought a 2008 335xi coupe used a few years ago with chrome 189s that were trashed (previous owner never cleaned them, and chrome was flaking a LOT) fast forward to now, I have not been particularly nice to them either, and since the flaking makes it so they don't like to hold air, I got new rims.

I have no interest in holding onto these 189s in their current shape and I don't think anyone would want them without being refinished.

So I am looking for someplace to bead/sand blast them to clean off the chrome and then clean up the curb rash, and repaint or powder coat them.

I highly recommend Doug Isert at Wheel Works. His phone number is 206 499 3684. He does absolutely top quality work. He is the guy Ferrari and Mercedes and any number of other high end dealers go to for wheel repairs. I had a small curb rash on one of my wheels and he made it look 100% factory. He even built his oven oven to bake the finish on the wheel after he is done. He is up in Kirkland. He doesn't have a website any only takes referrals/word of mouth.

Alloy wheel repair in Kirkland just did my Enkruez H8R's and did an amazing job. They did the job for half the price that Seattle Wheel repair quoted me. Highly highly recommend them.
