ASS U ME.

Yeah not many powder coating companies can do like the original rim manufacturers did and machine the lug nut Pockets after the coating....

There's generally a reason why you never see any factory rims or otherwise with coatings on the lug nut seats you will see them with steel inserts but never painted or powder-coated.

I've seen it with bolted on powder coated water pump pulleys, all the way to rims, rotors, knuckles, multiple times over the years.

carry yer lug nut wrench and socket with you buddy.

Last thing you need is your lug nut holes chewed the f*** out because they loosened up.

I have a set of chewed-up tgp rims that were powder coated and now all the lug nut holes are ovaled.

I doubt you want to turn those into air hose holders bolted to yer garage wall.
