Painting factory rims. What did you use?
I hate chrome. I love the black on black look. I've seen some pics on here of guys that have blacked out their rims. Nor looking for a solid black but sort of a silvery black. Does that make sense?
Going to be taking off the winter rims soon and putting the factory 18s back on so was thinking of painting them before then.

im not sure about the prep i will ask my friend later about it but he has painted a lot of rims himself with duplicolor high performance wheel spray can paint. you can get it at most auto parts stores. They do have a self etching prespray to help the paint tac on. i can get a picture of my friends challenger that he painted the rims on. i am getting ready to do mine this weekend. i will also post pics of it.

Spray Painted Rims
I Spray painted my aluminum rims black with an outdoor flat black spray paint that I picked up at Ace Hardware. I did some research on the interwebs and found several sites that gave step by step istructions. Here's one of them http://offroad-review.com/new/index.php?page=238.
I recommend removing the wheels before doing the prep work and then spray painting the wheels.
My paint job still looks good and is going on over a year now.
