so wait, im such a rookie, what paint do you need to paint them!?


Eastwood makes a good wheel paint. Satin black is what I used. I'm not sure if they have a gloss black wheel paint, wouldn't surprise me though, they have everything else.

There's a lot of other options though. Almost any good outdoor metal paint will do the job. Prep work is important if you want the paint to stay on well.

thats awesome, so its DIY job! woohoo! i need to buy 4x4 for dummies', and customizing your car for idiots, lol. thanks for the clarification!

be sure to sand down the wheels really good and tape off anything you dont want the bedliner on

Something like bedliner on the rims might make balancing a bit of a job. If you take care to spread it evenly it might work. If you do it, let us know how it turns out!
