Show me your painted stock wheels! I am contemplating painting my stock wheels black after I finish my semi-gloss tranformation. Going for the all sleeper look with none of the sleeper power :laugh:

GST 5 spokes. Dupli-color gunmetal w/ polished lip. Took me forever to do, haha.

Hey, that looks pretty good.

Here are my 97 GS-T wheels powdecoated black.

Heeeeeerrrre ya go:

Probably not the best wheels to start with, I would've much rather preferred a set of Talon 5-spokes, but I take what I can get

Here's mine...they are my winter wheels, so I didn't put a whole lot of time into them.

Mines the 1g .. i have a few more pictures in my gallery .. but this is when it was nice and clean

After being washed .. wheels are sprayed "Black Night Metallic"

Good side shot of the whole car !

Done with Krylon Gloss.

Thanks yall keep them coming!

BTW here is my semigloss thread.

Hey guys...I don't have any pics yet, but I'm using the Rustoleum High Performance Gloss Black Spray and it's looking pretty unbeleiveable. I think the end result is gonna look identical to professional powdercoating

just painted them this weekend w/ Duplicolor wheel paint

Here are mine.

Stock rims painted like that are soooo nice! They look like they are aftermarket. I wish my car came with stock rims.

how hard was that?, how many cans you end up going through? after seeing yours i think im going to go with that untill my wheels come in

what kind of paint/sandpaper should be used to paint rims, especially like toshiro? I don't know of any type, brand, or color..I would want to do mine like toshiro..if instuctions can be given they'll be appreciated
