Powdercoating OEM Wheels? (17"Crown Spokes)

Hi People!!
I own a 2008 Pepper White MCS and I was wondering if anyone has painted their 17" Crown Spokes in black? I have run-flats on, could this create any complication regarding the removal of the wheels and getting them back on? Any problems with the sensors, etc..?
Thank's...........Steve!

I also want to get my wheel colour changed but I'm thinking about just putting my factory ones in the garage and getting a new set without the run flats. I think powder coating works well but you have to have the wheels demounted for it to be a proper success.
