want to paint my wheels a different color but im not a hundred percent sur if i should powdercoat or paint never had any wheels powdercoated before and ive heard good things about it if you have had any experience with powdercoat or paint let me know thanks

 

I recommend painting, as the heat applied in the powder coating process can potentially weaken the metal of certain wheels if the temperature is too high.

Here's a discussion concerning a Honda OEM wheel which failed after being powder coated: https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/718...ap2v1s-failure

 

Plasti-Dip. I have wheels dipped matte black and matte white w/ Plasti-Dip clear. The white I wouldnt use on a DD. But its perfect on a weekend warrior. I clean my white wheels roughly every 3 times its driven.

 

Definitely powder coat. Much more durable and last a lot longer. Most powders now cure at around 375 which won't cause any issues at all.

 

Key thing: Go to a reputable shop for powder coating. Metal that are heat cycled too many times is never good especially wheels. If you plan on hitting the track, I would highly recommend paint. Powder Coat is overall more durable in comparison to paint which is better for a daily. If you go with powder, make sure they don't leave it in the oven for too long, not even 5 minutes too long.
