how heavy is powder coating

im thinking about powdercoating the lips on my rims since the clear coat is flaking pretty bad. but i dont want to do it if its going to add a lot of weight. i could be completely wrong and there might not be any more wieght than if i was to paint them. but i though i heard it adds quite a bit of weight. so if it does. how much do you think it will add.

btw the rims are 20s with a 2.5 inch lip and a 4 inch lip

its more than likely the same...especially since it takes less material to PC than paint
