Tom,

If you're going to go with powder coating be sure that you go somewhere that
will guarantee the finish. From my personal experience, powder coaters aren't
used to the heat necessary to do wheels properly.  The finish on my white
wheels is softer then paint, and this most certainly shouldn't be the case with
a powdercoat.  The place that did mine guaranteed the finish for life. Thus,
it's not a big problem for me.
