Paintin' my wheelzz

[95astrovan]

i need some insight as to what i should do for my wheels paint-wise..they need new paint. the factory coat is pretty messed up on my front 2, and they just need to be refreshed. I've been thinking about black, but i'm looking for other options/opinions. anyone know of any other shades i could paint them, anyone know the name/code of the factory wheel coating?

Re: Paintin' my wheelzz

Can you post some pics of the wheels now so we can see just how messed up the factory coating is so when can best advise you on how to prep the wheels for the paint...


and while gunmetal will look very tight, its going to be a little bit harder to do than your more "traditional" colors...
