Default Black Cragar Soft 8's

Hi everyone, long time reader, first time poster.

Has anyone had or heard of problems with the black powdercoated Cragar soft 8's rusting out? I just got these for my 2dr X, and I'm wondering if I should swap them for alloy wheels. Any input would be appreciated.

I'm running the soft 8's... the way I see it, I could buy like four sets of them for the price of a set of nice alloys, so if they rust, it's no biggie. For what it's worth I've had no problems or signs of rust so far.

its also easier to use a hammer on them if you bend a rim, not chunk it out like an alloy. besides black paint is cheap.
