Wheel Paint Recommendations

[santanvalleydirt]

I've got some wheels that came as the stock dulled-out silver color, I was wondering what brands some of you guys used to paint them? I know a few guys have been around the block a few times with this, wondering if there is any products that are particularly better than others.

I have very general auto parts store matte black. It turned out pretty good.

Yes, my buddy Grego(92?) on yotatech has done his in graphite color. He used a certain self-etching primer and then paint. Awesome. Check his thread.

Home Depot Rustoleum Self etching primer and Rustoleum wheel paint.
The biggest part of the ultimate success is to get all the crud and corrosion brushed off the wheel. A 4 1/2" angle grinder with a cup brush really works well. The cost is pretty low so if you scrape on something, touch up is easy.
