Can anyone shed some light on the effectiveness of having wheels Painted.
The price to paint vs. powder coat is half the cost, and i was wondering how they will last. I've noticed when people do this themselves (they usually do index card trick) they come out pretty crappy or dont last very long. I would have these done professionally (at a powdercoat shop), and the wheels would not have tires on them. Do you guys think this is a bad idea. I really don't want to pay double for powder coat, since the color scheme I'm going for isn't "normal" and I may get sick of it.... Thanks fellas.
