Painting after mkt. wheels
My trucks got a set of polished aluminum pro comp wheels on it. They used to look good, but after a few winters and a lack of attention, they look like hell. Brake dust, road salt, its taken a toll.
I was considering masking off the tires and painting them so they arent such an eyesore and then replacing them when the warmer weather comes back.
Does anyone have a paint recommendation to use?
I was going to go black, but saw some gun-metal grey stockers on a Ranger FX4, and thought that might look pretty good too. The trucks a 2-toned burgundy/tan, just help you get a picture in your head.

Im up for the idea of powdercoating; I like the end effect, but Im not in love with these wheels Ive got, so Id rather save that for the next set that will go on.
I dont particularly care for the flashy stuff, and am most likely going to try and put together something along the lines of an American Racing Baja and find some H2/BFG AT take offs. If powdercoating can be done in clear, just to protect the polished aluminum from getting pitted again, Ill probably go that route.
