if you're gonna paint em, powder coat is the only way to go! or else it'll look real bad

will powder painting though? (not that familiar with powder painting even after reading that thread...where isaac explained all i think) cos, not to mention the rims are where it hits rocks all the time...i searched the forums, still not sure if the paint will fall or not... i know i am stupid... but i'm intrested in this too

powder coat, and the clear coat that goes over that should protect against rocks and other road stuff. same clear stuff thats on the stock rims to protect them...and pretty much any other rim out there, unless im mistaken.
