Powdercoating Wheels

I have a set of what I believe are Mangel wide five chromed wheels in my car. I thought they were Brazilian but I heard that at the time my car was built in 2004, China had already entered into the picture and Mangels were being manufactured there instead of in Brazil. Anyway, for a 16 year old car they look amazing; except for a couple of very minor little spots they are almost rust free but I've been a slave to them, keeping them clean and waxed all this time. I love the look of silver wheels and was contemplating either getting new steel silver painted wheels and then sending them to powdercoating or sending the ones I have to powdercoating so as to forget or minimize wheel maintenance. Not sure if that is possible on chrome wheels; meaning can the chrome be removed altogether for powdercoating? I have heard of the new alloy wide five rims that a few people have but I prefer steel original looking ones. Would this be possible? Thanks in advance.
