To piggyback / this what are the pros/cons for powder coating vs. just painting. I have read things that state the temps in powder coating can harm the wheel from a strength standpoint and painting is a better way to go.

It is fine, don't read into that.

Paint = CHIP
PC = Withstand abuse

Thanks Andy, you're the second person to recommend Phil. Looks like I'm gonna have to check him out when I pick up the new wheels.
