I have to play devil's advocate here. I dipped my wheels and for anyone that's really into modding they'll know what it is right away. But I seriously get compliments on the wheels almost every day, even at car shows. I think we here in the forum look at stuff so much we brainwash ourselves into only liking something that's $4000 or more. But to the untrained eye a good dip job looks great. It's cheap, easy to do, and totally reversible. Plus if you do it well, it'll last for a long time. Mine have been done for 1.5 years and it looks great still. People ask me all the time what paint I use lol.

Anyway, I don't have an extra $400-$500 for powdercoating, and I can't spare my care being down for a few days with no wheels.

If you have the money and don't mind spending it, I would say powdercoat them. It's more durable in the long run and looks great, plus you have more color options. But I just think dipping is a viable option.
