Default White rim paint

Don't know what section this is suppose to be in, but since its dealing with wheels I'm going to give it a shot. I was wondering what kind of white paint is best for rims? Don't want to get wheel paint cause its too pricey. Anyone know any other white paint that will look really good?

Yeah the dupli-color wheel paint too much. Looking for something like 2 - 3 bucks. I'm not sure if like krylon or rustoleum white paint holds up good on rims. How do they hold up with clear coat?

well...the extra 2 bucks u are paying for the duplicolor is well worth it in my opinion.

i never use more then 2 cans of the duplicolor when i paint my wheels. usually one can of the clear and one of the base will do for one set of 4 wheels.

i have had good experiences w/ krylon and rustoleum. i would recommend getting the tires mounted first if you are painting the whole rim cus the tire guys are gonna chip em
