As almost everyone knows i have my rims powder coated, i live in nyc and the weather is saying from 6-12" of snow today. do you guys think the snow and salt will mess my rims up? Or should i not take a chance and just take them off tonite..?

if i am not wrong , powdercoat is much more durable coat that regular wheel or auto paint and it is hard to mess by weather conditions or even chemicals
This is true, but I would put my winter set up on anyway if I was you Mike. No sense even risking it is there? PC isn't cheap and it's better to keep em looking as good as possible for as long as possible. Nothing is harsher than the salt they lay down in NYC, I know I lived there for years. It ate into the finish and the aluminum of he wheels I had on my Jeep Cherokee.
