I used the duplicolor bronze ---- and only used two cans and that was enough. ---- this was the best job I did so far and for prep I just took a paper towel and knocked off the lost dirt and then started spraying. The bronze looks really good and I didn't clear coat it cause I don't like the glossy look and the the ---- holds good and nothing has chipped of yet. ---- primering and all that other ----. I did that all before on the other rims I've painted and these with the less prep work turned out the best. Duplicolor gets two thumbs up from me.

i was gonna try that high performance wheel paint on mine.
but while painting always remember the important rule on how many coats to use, "once for dust twice for rust" ;).

This is the ---- that I used. cheap and holds good for not even washing or priming the rims. Sprayed right over dirt!

it's ok travis, I still love canada and my canadian people.

my rims should be here in a week or 2, I'm going to get some heavy ass sand paper to take all the white paint off, then go over with a little bit lighter sand paper so the paint isn't all rough. then I'm going to do a couple of coats of flat black and then mount some tires and put them on. I'm going with flat black because if I went with anything else I'd be fired as a stealthmode performance representative.

Julio, do me a favor and don't paint a good set of gsr wheels. Not even black.
Sell them to someone that wants that ---- and put some real black wheels on your car.
I just feel like your taking a red type r valve cover and asking how you should paint it. :-\

How about you take a deep breath and ill expalin to you why i have to do this...ready.... ok here goes

BECAUSE I WANT TO!!!!!

that and when i bought them i got them black, so when i hit that ---- with the airplane remover ---- it made it look dull and wack!!

i dont like that ---- all dull..i like them black or some dark greyish color...
but seriously if these were Type-R wheels i wouldnt be doing these...ican find these just about anywhere but do i want to spend 300-400 NO!
i got these for 200 with tires and thats good enough for me..even if they were black to begin with..thanks for your concern but i think ill paint them anyway ;)
