Paint stock wheels?

[Lockeness7]

Just bought a new tahoe of black on black. I have always been an aftermarket rim guy but this time I am thinking of painting the stock 20" chrome rims gun metal gray like the color of acura gray wheels. Anyone know someone who did this and any pics? Thoughts welcome and encouraged. Thanks!

I know people who have painted wheels before not the 20s though... simple

sand paper and a paint gun and whaalaaa!!

Do the job right! Have a professional prep and paint the wheels correctly, so it looks good!
Nothing worse then painting it yourself and then it looks like crap and/or starts peeling...

if you're gonna go to a pro... i suggest powdercoating. i did mine black, i think it looks pretty sick.

Powdercoat them, mine turned out awesome in black

Find a local place that repairs wheels, should be able to powdercoat them any color you want and will stand up to any conditions.
