Hey,
i painted my sisters wheels last summer, and her not being a car persone whatsoever, i dont even know why whe wanted black wheels, she washed her car i would say maybe 5 times from last summer, trough the winter, all the salt and grime, and just the other day i washed it for her, and i detailed it a few months or so, they still look same as the day i painted them. (and i must admit that i didnt do as good of a job as i was in a hurry kinda, so i feel even better about my wheels since i took 2 days to do the job and let the coats dry long enough).
so to sum it up, if you do a good job and let them dry good, you should be fine.
just take your time and you will get good results, people always ask me where i got them powdercoated at, and when i tell them that i did it myself they just dont believe me, so thats a proof that you can get outstanding and porsche community approved wheels.
let us know how it works out and post up some pics
DJ
