No More Chrome! New rim pics inside.

Bought these rims last September for only $200 with tires. Didnt like the chrome but couldnt pass up the deal. So I bought them and drove on em thru the winter and always wanted to powdercoat or paint them. Well the time has come, cant afford powdercoat so I finally took the day to paint them. And I do mean DAY! took me from 11am until 8:30pm with a few hours to go grab more paint and dinner.

Heres what they looked like chrome.



And painted black...

Thanks guys, took me all day and I have a nasty sun burn to prove it. Will keep you updated on the paint holding up. I am going to be getting some spacers like you IDNC, get them to stick out alittle bit. How are yours doing, I figure if they can hold up to your 38's then my 34's will do just fine.
