yea im thinkin this is the route im going to be going now. 5 bucks for a can of paint is so much easier than paying out my ass for new wheels or powder coating.

did you have to do alot of sanding and crap? did you prime or just paint over the stock color?

well last time i painted them they were black and we sanded all the way to bare metal before paint (pain in the ass), and we did use primer... the reason i repainted was they chipped a lil bit bc of ice and snow not very much but i noticed every day lol. this time me and one of my friends just sanded it smooth and painted over it with the new color.

may be a noob question, but did you take the tires off to paint them or did you just go at it with the tires on there? i know of some ppl who have.
