You do NOT need high temp paint for wheels. Don't care if anyone disagrees, it's not necessary.

I have my valve cover painted in it. Its hanging in my bedroom awaiting a worthy motor






I think doing the lips of some low offset rims would look pretty killer. Starks especially

Most Auto Zone's, auto parts stores.... even Wal-Mart has them. I remember a few years ago people were using this paint on everything. There was an 85'ish Blazer that was completely painted with this paint. People used it on their interiors,air vents, door pockets, etc. The SOHC VC looks good though.
