Are you certain this link is the right one?
"see this site and then think twice about powder coating wheels" It sent my browser to something unrelated. FWIW, I like regular paint for wheels. I use powder coated exhaust manifolds however, more performance there for the buck than putting it on wheels.

I want to get my wheels PC'd. A high profile Mercedes specialist in Burlingame powdercoats all of the bundts that they put on their cars they restore (mainly SL's) and will paint them instead if they are asked to. Im trying to weigh the pros/cons and Im leaning towards paint simply because the finish looks better, even if its not as strong. They quoted me a price of $150.00 for all 4. What a deal! If anybody in the bay area needs high quality, mercedes specific body work or wants to have wheels powdercoated, PM me and I'll send u the company info. While their price for re-painting wheel sets is low, everything else is rather high. But seeing their work and finished projects will justify their high rates. As we all know in the world of autobody restoration and repair, you get what you pay for. At 150.00 I can afford to have my wheels repainted every couple of years when they start to show signs of age....
Happy Motoring
