Powder coat entire > wheel or just the front side or???? Powder coating requires that the finish be baked after coating, so the tire has to be removed to do this. In this case, I'd say that the only reasonable thing to do is to paint the whole wheel. There are other good paint systems that work well on wheels, too. Powdercoating is not the only good choice. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
