Been posted in more than a few black wheel threads....
I used Duplicolor Sandable Black primer and Duplicolor Satin Black rattle cans. JUST touched them up today after about 12-13 months of regular on street use and moderate off roading. Had mainly trail pinstripes and a few places on the lip of the rim with paint chips-and I'll attribute all of those to wheeling.

Very minor- and as opposed to chips it was more like longer, deep scrapes.
Not more than 1/8 of an inch into the face of the rim right at the lip where tire meets rim. They were easily repaired with a few shots from a rattle can.
