Thanks guys.

Thats 3 coats of duplicolor charcoal wheel paint, 4 coats clearcoat.

They werent really careful putting them on, so I have some touching up to do on 2 rims where there nut for the impact wrench goes in.

I masked with regular painters tape. It took a while to mask them good....I'd say each wheel took about 20 minutes and its still not perfect. Sometime this week, Im going to sand down some areas on the wheel and replace the front shitty stock wheel nuts for some nice McGuard ones...

Sanding the lip, use a small peice of sandpaper and go along flush with the edge, this way you keep the paint off the lip....I dont, its hard to explain. :huh: :lol:
