As far as I know powercoating has to be done by a professional because of the equipment that is required...I think the going rate as about £30-40 a wheel, could be wrong though
Also, I'm not sure if a wheel can be powder coated in different colours because of the way its' done (I think its dipped, so the entire wheel is covered), again I could be wrong
To have a different colour center and rim, they are usually sprayed as far as I know

as all of above
in simple terms it works with the paint being powder to start with and it heats up and is basically melted on.
spray them would be cheaper and easier. think im going to get my rims powder coated because its free
