That could well be it. The powder coat on my wheels is much thicker than paint would be. I did emphasise I wanted a Flat Matt which may have caused them to add extra coats.
Did you do anything with the chips on yours? The powder coat being so thick on mine makes the chips a bit deeper than normal and harder to paint/repair. I am also reluctant to think about repairing anything myself yet as its only week 1 of having the wheels done.

RE: Powder Coated Wheels - Opinions Needed Please!
I am a fan of black wheels and have 2 sets which I swap around on the E39. The first time I went to chose the shade of black, I set my sights on a matt black which I loved. On the advice of the powder coater he advised against the matt black as it marked very easily and wasnt hard wearing. Went with his advice; satin black which I find very hard wearing.
