powder coat would be the most durable. aside from that, i beleive its duplicolor that makes wheel paint.

would be best to get the tires pulled off the rims for the best results. you dont have to worry about overspray and its a lot easier to work with

dont rattle can your wheels. i painted mine with expensive duplicolor and i regret it. i did 3 coats of color and 2 coats of clear and it looked good not great. two months later there are some noticeable scratches. i would invest in powder coating the wheels. but thats me.
