#2. If you are going to make an arguable statement, please don't spell like a retarded third grader, that is not going to help your credibility.
#3. Stop being a dumbass and shut the **** up.
The wheels that are made weaker during the powdercoating process are cheap wheels. The are made weaker because of two reasons, the first being that they are made with material not made to withstand the heat of the oven that it used in the process. The second is that the powdercoat is slightly acidic till it cures, which again, is only a worry if you have low quality wheels. These wheels are forged and made by Rays, so they are high-quality and there is no need to worry.

EDIT: I will check on the 350Z forums just in case, but as far as I know, this has been a problem with the standard wheels and not Forged Rays.
