Anyone have experience with powder coating?

Golden Arrow · 02-04-2015, 02:25 PM

I'm thinking when it comes time to change out my tires, I'll have my OEM wheels powder coated. Has anyone done this? Any cons I should be aware of?

Powder Coat

PROS
- Durability
- Endless amount of different colors/textures/finishes

CONS
- If not performed correctly, could negatively influence the structural integrity of the wheel. It's recommended you go to a shop that has experience in working with aftermarket wheels.
- $$

For consideration, check out the VMR Wheels Powder Coat gallery to see some different examples:
