John, great link, thanks for posting. I'm wanting to paint my wheels as well as my son's old toyota steel wheels. Is the wheel paint the same as the valve cover paint? Also, anybody have a tip on how to clean surface rust off of the wheel before painting? Thanks.

Chris- If you really want them to look good and last ,have them powder coated. I used Argent Silver,a Ford color as my comparison. Many PC'ers have metal sample squares you can paint and then compare with their colors. Mine came out great.

And if you want to do yourself Eastwood has Argent Silver powder. Just need an oven large enough to get the wheel into for about 20 minutes!
