i have been thinking about painting my work cr kai rims, either painting them, or powdercoating them.

i have spray painted a lot of rims before, but never painted some expensive ones

i am thinking about spraying them, because i have heard that powercoating makes them more brittle and can make them weaker, and because i probably plan to drift with them, i dont want to make them weaker at all, and of course it costs a lot more to powdercoat

anybody have any extensive definitive knowledge on powdercoating?
