heard about that not good at all

would be for a set of wheels and would be able to remove/replace tyres and balance them my self,

is it alot harder wearing than paint.

is there any down sides?

well to be honest that rocker cover i had done was flaking off on the outside aswell. but id say thats because it wasnt done properly at all. get it done somewhere reputable and should be grand. im thinking of getting mine done black again but give it to mark graham to do

depends on how badly the were damaged

dont forget with powdercoating you need the wheels sand blasted or glass beaded
