Powder Coat vs. Painted Rims
When it comes to customizing your car, the decision of whether to paint or powder coat your wheels is an important one. Your wheels receive heavy abuse from harsh roads and bear the brunt and weight of your vehicle. That being said, crisp, clean wheels are one of the first things that people notice about a custom car build.
Painting car rims can be a good short-term solution but is typically not the best choice for your car or truck in the long run. Paint is prone to scratching and chipping and does a poor job of shielding the wheels. It can also be more costly due to the need for repeat application. Powder coating gives your wheels a more consistent, professional appearance and can also extend the life of your wheels by protecting them from the wear and tear of the road. Even more, powder coating is much more environmentally friendly than paint.
