A couple of things about powder coating.
I use El Dorado for sea going equipment all the time at work (Scripps Institution of Oceanography) and their work is better, faster, and cheaper than R W Little.
I wouldn't powder coat race car wheels in any case because the coating is a thermal insulator, and the wheels are the major heat sink for the brakes. If you must have colored wheels, apply an epoxy paint (much thinner that powder coat) or, better yet anodize them.
For anodizing, take your parts to Southern California plating, talk to Louie. For epoxy paint coatings, El Dorado, see Kevin.
