| I have always had my wheels painted and i have never had any issues.
You would defo need to replace the bearing after they are pressed out, even if you thought you might get away with it...it is defo not something to risk!!
I chose the paint option purely because the finish is spot on, and the ease of it.
For any other bits and bobs (subframe etc...) i have powder coated for the same reason.
2 pack paint is softer, hence chips and fractures are unlikely whereas powdercoat is very brittle, thats why you see lots of little chip marks around the rim when the tyres have been changes a few times. |
