I got really good results using the Duplicolor wheel coating products.

 

how long did they take you? you have the non-chrome rims, right?

 

Right, my rims are the brushed aluminum not the chrome. The whole process of prep and paint took a full morning and then of course I had to wait for them to dry. It isn't a difficult process it is just hand sanding all the wheels takes time.

 

Ah with a case of beer you can get anything done in a day

 

Watching paint dry is a great time for drinking

 

I painted my stock 17's, they look fine to me but here is a pic of them.

 

these are my new rims

 

sic77 What paint did you use? And how did you paint over the chrome of the wheels? Did you just sand them done of what as I like that.

 

i sanded them first and the painted them with dupli color primer, then i used dupli color engine enamel paint. and i also put like 2 light coats of clear coat on them. they have been painted for about a month now and no chipping. and i go down rocky dirt roads everyday.

 

I wonder if any one has painted the 17's I have black, there are a lot of little crevices on mine tho.
