I Think you talking about spray painting them? Because I think you have no idea what powder coating really is......

Ludacris has a good How-To on painting rims. lol @ DIY powdercoating.

you have to cook the paint on and that can make the rim brittle and thats why rims are painted. I looked in to it and its not a good idea over all.

Whats wrong with DIY powdercoating? Definitely doable and would be much cheaper if you plan to powdercoat a bunch of stuff.

I am refering to DIY powdercoating and not NiZmO97 thinking about powdercoating...

If you want your rim to fall off powder coat it. If you like to live and want to see tomorrow paint it.

the bad this with powder coating is they chip.....like if you nick a curb or anything like that one scratch turns to a spot......not to bad tho...good luck keep update if you do it..
