Mine are Painted not powder coated. I think the came out pretty good. lots of thin coats / clear coat and waiting for dry time and paint to cure.

I havent ran it in a 1/4 yet. but we have a 1/8 mile track where i live and it runs 8.6's at 81 mph. my guess would be 13.4's maybe 13.5's in the 1/4. I'm looking at adding cams soon.

I had a set of wheels powder coated for $240. They came out great and can be done in just about any color. My wheels where all chrome and they taped off the lip and only powder coated the face of the wheel. $240 + dis-mounting and mounting & ballancing cost ($80) seemed like a good deal to me. I had a set of stock wheels/tire so it wasn't that big of deal to have done. It took 3 days from drop off to back on my car. If you are going to paint your wheels you would need to remove your tires to do it right anyways. Powder coating will last and look better than any rattle can job.
