For the rock chip thing... I thought powder coat was so strong that the the metal will dent before the paint chips off.

Is that still true, or are rock chips different? Anyway to protect against that?

If the rims are properly preped and cured...they will not chip...however you can still scrape through the coating just like the paint on your car. Its very durable, but not indestructable. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

and more than likely, when you got to have the tires put back on the rims, the tire mounting machine might scratch them a little??...depending on good the installer is.
