Default Motorcycle Wheels

Hi, this is my first post. I am considering anodizing or coating my Yamaha R1 wheels, which would be the best to do? I am wanting a gold colored rim and don't know which way would be better, any suggestions? Thanks, Larry

Anodize is a harder finish, so will last longer, but it's slightly harder to do than powder coating. Do you have experience plating or powder coating? If so, I'd stick with what you know.

It's really up to you.
