If you powder coat the rims, make sure that you remove the seals and bearing from the rim, and then make sure that the company that is powder coating the rims do NOT put powder coating inside the area where the bearings go. My stepson had his powder coated and they look great!! The only issue is that the guy who did the job put the powder coat inside the area where the bearing went in, and dang it took forever to get it out of there so that the bearings went back in.
