When you powdercoat a forged rim, if not done correctly, could ruin the structural integrity of the rim. This could potentially lead to disastrous results as one could imagine. Don't be so quick to roll your eyes 
Anyhow to the OP, looks like you did a fantastic job. Your stance and ride height is pure sex man. May I ask what kind of suspension you're running?
Kudos to you, can't wait to see the finished results

Those look STELLAR. I can't imagine the time spent to get those wheels to a mirror-polish, nice job dude.
this is very true, but as long as you don't go to some random dude with an oven you should be fine. Most experienced powdercoaters can powdercoat forged parts with absolutely no issues, and if able to will do low-temp powdercoating that limits the temperature that the wheel is exposed to. I had my 18/19 Grand Tourings powdercoated.

Looks good man! Definitely an improvement from your old set. I believe I saw you on the Blvd last saturday afternoon as well. I was in the now back to stock '07 PPW Z turning left on to the Blvd from Witchduck.
