People who painted their wheels
Was wondering for the people that painted their wheels if anyone used caliper paint to do it.

I was thinking about it and thought it would bond better than just regular paint, anythoughts?

Caliper paint is just a higher temp resistant paint, wheels don't need it. I guess it would work...
