I thought normal spray painting should be dry within less than 1 day? Unless of cos u sprayed a very thick layer on new paint over the rims.
BTW, pardon beng but what is powder coating?

Powder coating is instantly dry after they bake it
same with paint, if they use a 2K paint, it has to be baked, and thus instantly dry.
Poweder coating is more durable for sure, i used to use it on my moto x bike frames, really hard compared to paint, and just as glossy.
Beng, powdercating is just as it states, it is a pwder coating!! Basically, you put a charge into whatever it is you are coating, then using sort of like a spray gun, you spray particles of coloured particles, to which they are attracted to the charge, then you put it in a hi temp oven to "melt" the particles which then leaves it with a smooth and glossy finish. Problem usually is, colours are hard to get, usually balck, white or brown is standard, if for colours, must find a shop that stocks them
If you use 2K paint on rims, it will be no problem at all. It's probably whats on any coloured rim right now
