powder coating is the best option, but the most expensive. If youre goin to spend the $$ on powder coating, you might as well go buy some after market wheels

Powder coating will look a little bit better, but if you do the paint right the differences will be nearly indistinguishable.

It's not worth powder coating any OEM wheel, especially Si's. MAYBE meshies but that's it.

You can go to Pep Boys and get all the supplies you need to paint them correctly for less than $20.

its easy, it comes down to this..

powder coated = if you know for sure what color you want and wont get tired of it

painted= if your not to sure on color or want to change the color for new look after a while..
