62216, O'reilly's wheel paint
Posted by sd240, Nov-20-03 09:09 AM
I just got my set of ADR Akunin wheels that are white. I wanted to get them painted Black or Gunmetal, and that's when a friend told me about some wheel paint at oreilly's auto parts. Hay anybody heard of it or ever used it?:shrug Thanks.

ive heard of people that have painted their rims and most have been successful. The paint wont last forever though like 2-3 years and they will need to be repainted.

i painted the stock rims on my old 89 colt, and we didnt do any prep work besides simple cleaning and sprayed them with cheap chrome paint from walmart. it turned out PERFECTLY (much to our surprise) and the paint looked brand new a year later when i sent a rod through the oil pan and totalled the car, lol. :shrug

BTW, painting the rims chrome was done morea s a gag than an actual mod, lol. im 99% ricer free. :thumbsup
