this is not cheap spray paint that wears off fast this is propeller paint .It is a epoxy so its very good.The price is very reasonable at around 8 bucks.To get it go to aircraftspruce.com and type in propeller paint i did mine in flat black but its not exactly flat.Just follow the instructions and its best to prep by cleaning with alchohol.We stuffed newspaper behind the rim so we didnt spray the brakes.The paint job is not perfect because it was me and my older brother.The marks on the bottom off the rim in the closeup are beades of dirt not where the silver is showing through.

This is a mat black finish that is durable so you can wash it.Grease and dirt wipe right off so you dont have to keep respraying like spray paint.

Thanks for the tip!
I've been considering painting my rims like that, but leaving the rim part outside of the spokes silver metal... maybe polished.
I just don't want to have to keep touching them up...that paint might well be the answer!

I have these same type of rims, and am planning painting them as well. Did you sand them down at all?
