(just an idea)

Im sure it this was a good idea then it would be done on things like trailers and agricultural vehicles and I dont think they do???

Wolf wheel are available plain galv (as were Mach 5s) - the correct coating gives a surface equivelent to mill-rolled steel (if it's the wrong type though, yes it can give problems). Many commercial wheels are galvanised, but it's often thought that there of a heavy enough section not to be too worried, so they just prime, paint and forget.

The problems with powdercoating are on gowing they look good when first done but and its a big but if you powder coat buy the time you have noticed any bubbling it usualy means the rot has set in

Range Rover Blues:
I'd do it if I had the chance, you can still paint over galv anyway with the right paint.
