Thinking about painting stock 5 lug rims

I like the machine finish lip that yotaman left on his didn't know they were stock until I seen the pics on here.

 

thanks. I was being lazy cause i figured when the wheels get balanced I'd have to repaint sections everytime. i put the center caps back on after alittle more painting

 

YotaMan's method gets my vote.

 

Think ima get some 15x8 procomps

 

I still not sure on how to post pics here but i put on a set of 18 inch wheels of a O9 Rav4.Looks great

If you can afford new rims then go that route, but since you are asking about painting I assume you'd rather not spend the money on new ones. So... if you paint, I vote Matte Black.

 

I have the exact truck. & I'm looking to do something fun with it like paint the rims black and change these useless manufacture tires out? ANy suggestions on what color black to use i hear different people talk about different blacks like gloss, semi-gloss, matte.. Whats the difference in all these blacks? Any question what tire size did you upgrade too?

 

NAPA #7244 Toyota Trim Black. Not too shinny, not too flat.
I'm still running the factory tires until they wear out.

 

I plan on buying new wheels when my stock tires wear out but until then I plasti dipped them. Very easy. No masking. No removal from truck. Two hours. Turned out perfect. Very happy! Watch how easy it is on YouTube.
