Default powder coating wheels....

Is it better to powder coat or to paint wheels? Where is the best place to get either done?

I think for the long run powder coating would be your best bet. As far as powder coaters go check around town and get pricing. Good luck and let us know how it turns outs!

I have done both, and if price were no object I would go base/clear paint again. Finish holds up better than the powder and looks deeper. For me the powder was much cheaper is the only reason I went that way the second set of wheels I had done.
