Don't care for black wheels at all because they all look the same. This makes them look better because I don't care for Prostars. So I guess that makes them look good to me.

5W20- Are yours painted or powdercoated?

BAIN- Did you spray paint yours, or have them painted?

How are they holding up, especially where the lug washer sits on the face of the wheel?

These questions were answered on pages 1&3

Here ya go.

I just roughed them up with some 800-1000 git sandpaper and taped the lip off and went to town with some high heat gloss black spraypaint. I don't think high heat paint is needed. Just regular (good paint) like Krylon would work just as good and may even be more glossy.
The painted area around the lugs/washers have worn off only because I switch these rims out for my other set of black Prostars for the track. I just touch them up with some paint every once in a while. This could have been prevented by masking off the area where the washers spin before painting.

Thanks again guys for the compliments

Wow, I think that would look awesome on my black LT1 with Prostars. If I wanted something pretty Glossy, and not as flat, which type of paint should I get? And what about the center caps?
