I painted my 17"s and they turned out a lot better than I thought they would.

Make sure you use a high heat primer, I've seen a bunch of rims come into the shop that have been painted and from the heat they went almost like an elephant skin from not using the right primer.
I used dupli-color high heat primer and dupli-color paint.
I never used any clear coat and there fine, but if you want a high gloss look clear coat is the way to go.
I got all the paint from Canadian Tire.
