I am trying to decide if I should bedline the rims black. They are scuffed up bad and I thought they might look pretty good black. What do you all think?

Woah those running boards are boss.I personally like the way the wheels look as they are . But its ur jeep so do what u want to do.

I wouldn't use bedliner rims. It's pretty heavy and might mess with the balance of your wheels. I just used regular black spray paint. Or maybe it was high temperature brake caliber paint.

I'm with rmoore just use normal spray paint not bedliner it will work fine.

I wouldn't bed line the rims, if anything I would plastidip them, because if you don't like it you can peel it right off.

Thanks for the tip in the bedliner. I wouldn't have thought it would be heavy enough to mess with the balance.

If I did the rims black, then the running boards would go black too, or just come off.

I'd personally get rid of the running boards. Unless you physically need them to enter and exit the Jeep. Seems unnecessary on a stock XJ.

Not hating on your Jeep, that is some clean paint and a nice visor.

I'd paint or powdercoat them. Bedliner would add unnecessary weight.

Take the running boards off if you don't need them, it will make your xj look like it sits up higher with them off

I put bed liner on my bed liner.

You can purchase bedliner in a spray can that is not heavy/thick like

normal bedliner. About $9 for a can. I used it on my running boards.

It has been very durable, has a semi-gloss/satin finish.

It would look good on rims also.

I used splatter trunk type spray paint on a set of Dodge wheels, that

looks great, balanced good, and have been durable.

I bed lined my last wheels and it worked great. Added weight is whatever because it maybe a couple ounces across the entire wheel. Just spray on a reasonably even coat an you are good to go
