my stock wheels were pretty beat up, so i got some 18" tsw for the summer and decided to paint stock and use them for the winter.here they are from stock to finish, cleaned them, sanded them, 2 coats of primer, 3 coats of paint, 4 coats of finish.
total cost was $28

I don't like them, to be honest ... IMO they looked better before ...

Very very nice. Excellent Job.

Is that as durable as a Factory finish?

Sorry I didn't take any extra pics to do a diy, but it was easy to do, I got all of the stuff from advanceautoparts.com 320 grit sanding block, 1 can of duplicolor fillet primer, 2 cans of duplicolor wheel coating graphite, 1 can duplicator wheel performance clear, and a tack cloth. Make sure u use the lc123 coupon code to save some money.

Thanks for the compliments guys. They were just really beat up and looked ugly with all the scratches and curb rash.

Good luck with that! You can't achieve chrome, it will look really shiny silver and fade with time. Just go silver.

The more you know!
