    painting rims black or not

    I want to paint my after market pro comp rims black but im not sure how to go about doing it. I've heard a couple different ways, like powder coating or just using stuff from kragen and not sure what to do.

    just buy new ones. it will cost just as much to get them powdercoated. you will have to dismount the tires either way. it you just rattle can paint them you won't have to dismount them.
