pwder coat is much more durable and harder, it obviously wasnt keyed enough if its coming off, unless you kerbed them?

paint does just as good job tho, so long as you dont guide yourself in down the kerbs lol

the whole wheel was done but since they got chipped you can just pick it off in chunks think i might have to get them blasted then first and painted
