Ok so I have seen alot of people are painting their stock rims and it looks like it is turning out well.
I don't really like the look of a completely black rim but I do like being diffrent from the next 5 Jeeps I come across so I came up with half painting the rim.
What I thought is to paint the "Pie Slices" the Lug nut holes and the jeep logo in the middle Black while leaving the 5 spoke and edge of the rim all polished.
Just wanted to see what people thought so i did a little bit with some electrical tape just to see what it would look like.
If I choose to do it my next decision will be either a matt black, gloss black or a textured matt black.
Please give me feedback and let me know your thoughts.

 

I think it has promise. What color is your Jeep? Maybe the Jeep logo in body color and all the rest you wanted in black. Just a thought. Either way, I think it would be cool.

 

I have a black 4 door rubicon

 

Assuming you are half way through with that wheel, I like it.

 

LOL yeah I only did a little it was very tedious doing that with electrical tape

 

Here's another option that might be interesting. Black out the face of the wheels and leave the recessed areas alone.

 

Looks good I would use flat black or try the bed liner paint if it would stay on.

 

I second that...might look cool too

 

I like it!

 

what kind of paint is people using to paint thier rims?
What kind of prep work is being done?
How is the paint holding up?
