Looks good. IMO it would look better with some chrome center caps though :cool:

Is that just normal spray paint or some type of special tougher paint?

i spray painted part of my wheels on my 03 ranger with rustoleom protective gloss black, and because of my front brake dust, it made the gloss black a dull black. Oh well...need to get em powdercoated when i get the money.

Looks good, they looked better with a little mud on them though. Hey, I heard from my cousin that you can take your steel rims into Les Schwab and they'll send them out to sandblast and powdercoat for $25 a rim. He did it with his original spoke wheels from his model A.
