Personally i'd only ever powdercoat wheels. they have a tough old life and paint generally flakes pretty quickly.

I'd agree although with winter looming I don't think its a bad idea to do a temporary refurb til the spring...

i diy'd mine with spray paint and laquer, about 6 months ago, the rears are like new, the fronts are "just" starting to show signs of flaking, so it will get you through winter

good stuff. those who have used this particular paint, there are no instructions to primer or laquer????? did u do either of these

i have redone them before about 6 months ago with just silver paint but i primered and laquered them also, they came out i kind of mat silver finish, not what i intended but looked really good they havent even started showing sines of flaking, it is simply i have had a few bashes on the (never let your girlfriend have it for a quick shopping trip "it will make me spend less because it hasnt got a big boot")
