Re: [FWDLK] Is powder coating a good idea on/for FWDLK wheels?



I had my wheel rims powder coated and the powder coat definitely did chip
off where the sharp mounting clips contacted.
The 6 inch rims that I have since installed, I painted this time round
because I figured it couldn't be any worse than the damage caused to the
powder coated finish.

The Wheel Covers do not chip off the PC.
Mounting doesn't differ, but I do recall some balance weights coming  
of pretty soon on one car.
