no no no its quite alright... I said that because when you posted this, it was right above the "cracked rim" thread and in it you posted the same question. I was merely clarifying to avoid a double post which this actually isnt...

CCW is bad ass....flat out...

Most of the, if not all of the high dollar forged wheels are not powedcoated but forged. IMO its the way to go if you can afford it. Otherwise, you are stuck with the lower quality most likely to break/crack wheels.

I have had wheels powder coated and had zero problems with them because of them being powdercoated. Im going to start offering powdercoating soon in my business once things pick up.
