Default painted wheels

My wife refused to give me back my bullit wheels untill I painted her stock wheels black. So today I went out and bought the paint for $20 and spent 4 hours of my time and this is what I came up with.



If anyone wants a write up on how to do this at home let me know. I took a few pics of the process.

Those look nice. I like how you left the lip silver. All black wheels don't look good.

Man that looks good. What kind of paint did you use? Is there a special kind? Or just any old spray paint?
