Painted wheels are more prone to rock chips. I bet if everyone looked closely enough at their stock wheels next time they wash the car they’d find at least one or two chips within the first few months of ownership. A chip on the black barrel really sticks out since the primer is a light gray. Powder coat however is really durable and looks just as good years later as the first day. It’s almost like paint and PPF all in one.
