powdercoated imo is the way to go.. like above.

If you can't get them powdercoated, I would at least use automotive grade paint.

I think it would look sick with a red truck. Red and black always look great together.

Wet sanded them with 600 then taped off tires,I used rustoleum textured black ,ive used it on other things and its a tough finish,you can clear over it too but i like the satin look.The texture also matchs the factory fender flares too.Duplicolor makes a rim paint also in black ive used both and i like the rustoleum better.
