well, you should be able to find someone near you who does it ( no idea where you live but its pretty common) ovens are expensive id imagine, if your attempting to do any kind of business i wouldnt rely on your home oven. gloss, matte, size, colors- theres a lot to consider and a lot of variables.
a friend of mine does a lot of wheels and charges $25 per wheel if they are precleaned. $60 per wheel if he has to media blast them which is something else to consider as well.

the place that did my bars on my wing did not charge me anything at all that is y i did not take them back. my friend had some other things done at its place and its 75.00 per load. they said there oven is 4 foot x 8 foot long they put all they can in and thats a load. there number is 713 453 6282. both places are in texas.
I do it on the side but haven't done rims yet. No clue what I'd charge. Depends if I had the color available or had to buy it, etc.
Having to blast them would double the price of just shooting them pre-prepped though, that's for sure. Pain in the ass there. I know of pro shops that do them from between $70-100 and up per rim (depends on condition, color, if they're cleared, if they're two-stage, etc.)

Oops, sorry about that. I wasn't looking for a coater. I saw your reply after my post and thought you were asking me where I was from.
I've heard that powder coating wheels should only be done by professionals with the right equipment, because baking the wheels the wrong way can weaken the aluminum. I'd never let some backyard joe with an old gas oven cook my wheels!
That said, I've had parts powder coated by a locally well known shop. IIRC, I had my spindles coated gloss black for 40$ a piece. Gloss black is usually a one coat deal, I know that some colors (silver, for example) require 2 coats, and that will cost you more.

That's why the parts should be baked to a higher temperature than the curing temperature, prior to coating. It basically lets the parts outgas themselves so it won't be a problem once the powder is on and you cure them. I do aluminum parts all the time and have no issues w/that.
