hey guys, here are some pics of my stock 8 spoke 15inch rims painted black. I did it myself and only spent less than $20. I put like 5 coats of high temp flat black paint on each rim and 5 coats of clear coat on each rim. I think they turned out great!!! :) :D

What do you guys think!!!

I don't like black wheels in general and with the black wheel arches on the MINI, it looks kinda funny in my opinion but that said, it looks like you did a nice job and hey, the beauty of this is who cares what I or others think?

If you're happy, then that's all that counts :)

Cheers.

What a great job!!! I think it looks wicked!!! Great combi black and red. You should set up shop!! :D :D
WOW They look great!!!

I reckon they look fantastic. You've got me thinking to do mine.

You just used High Temp paint? What did you do to prep them?

I like all the smoked out lights and the stripes as well they look awesome.

Cheers Rub
Thanks guys, Suberub- I cleaned all 4 wheels first than sanded all four. Then I coated then with high temp flat black paint. I then let them dry to apply the clear coat. I was rather simple if you have a good hand!! LOL
