That came out really good. What paint and primer did you use? What did you clean the rims with to make the paint stick?

Lotta bling. I like them for what they are ( i'm more of a flat black as hybrid said ), but i need to see if they fit the car.

Anyway..GREAT WORK !

most spray paints dont stick to rubber. they flake off.

if you are paranoid put armorall on your tires paint wont stick to a greasy/wet/moist surface.

Re: My hand painted rimz ....what cha tink???? (JAH live1)

just make sure you let them cure alot before driving in gravel, a good day in the hot sun should hook em up, I have painted alot of wheels, I will never pay someone to powder coat...
