Can you have rims powder coated?
I was wondering if you can powdercoat rims or if it might cause some kind of problem installing the tires. Before you start flaming it let me just say, IT IS NOT FOR MY CAR. Damn wife wants gold rims for her Caddy and it's hard to find more than 5 difrent ones. She wants something ungodly ugly right now so I need to make some more choises available. She's hating the simple spoke designs and she really only wants 16s but 17s would be ok.
And no I can't talk any sence into her,at least not if I want to sleep in my own bed and not eat my own cooking.

Duh... I've been up all night and for some stupid reason after banging my head into the wall for the past 2 hours hunting for rims for my google challenged wife (who after 10 minutes of looking started playing wow and gave up)it didn't even occur to me to just google it.
The gold isn't negotiable, I'm just doing spin control now. She thinks these look good http://superbuytires.com/Asanti/Alligator%20Gold/
