I haven't anodized a set of wheels yet so I'm not sure the outcome. Zero issues with adding anodizing before assembly. Just not sure about the finish. My wheels are cast so they are porous more than billet. Everyone always goes with powder coat once they find out the cost of anodizing.
Been my experience that you get used to whatever mod you do. You'll get used to whatever tire you pick regardless of its characteristics. Then want something different.
Why do we do this to ourselves when you have something you adore? Slippery slope my man. Slippery.
