Those look great. Now you need to paint those rear wheel wells black too.

I'll differ from the norm... I don't like it. Why even have black rims? Might as well have plain steel wheels.

I am not trying to be rude, but I just don't understand the black wheels that look like they are dirty.

I read your title and thought this is going to be funny, but I actually like them. Looks like you did a good job. I painted some VW wheels a while back and when I clear coated them they yellowed really bad after a couple days. The clear coat also had runs and just didn't look as good as just paint. Obviously I had no idea what I was doing.
