Powdercoat for sure. It is much more durable, looks more professional, and yes you can get it in just about any finish.

Powdercoat man. I've painted three sets of rims. They looked AWESOME, but powdercoat will last longer, and easier on you. I spent hours on each set of rims.

Here is a picture of the SSR rims I painted that went onto my Nissan Sentra. I used the color gunmetal with clearcoat.
