Painting stock Rims?


I know Duplicolor sells rims paint but they have so many paint selection i dont know where the hell to look for on their site. Basically i want to keep my stock rims and buy 2..... 17x10.5" Bullitts. Now i know this is not going to match my stock color anthrasite so i want to just re paint the aftermartket rims and my stock rims the same color of anthrasite or a color close to anthrasite like a dark silver or something.

Has anyone painted there stock bullitts? how is it done? and can you point me in the right direction of what paint to buy?

thanks

Im not sure how to go about doing it yourself but you might want to look into getting them powdercoated.

powder coating looks really good and doesnt chip off so i would look into that. plus you can do just as many colors as painting.

Most of the time a quality powdercoating job will cost as much as buying the two new wheels.

If I were you, I'd just save and buy the wheels.

yeah i want the paint to look like the finish of the stock bullitts, so thats powdercoated right?

Hmm soo if i was to have a shop powerdercoat them how much do you guys think this would cost. you really think it would be over 100 bucks? if thats the case then yeah i guess its just better to buy all 4 rims.
