Just wanted to show people on a tight budget how to improve their jeep (visually) with this simple modification. Painting stock rims! I used a can of $1 quick color and taped off the outside silver ring on the wheel and sprayed it!

I like that! Keep thinking..It always starts with painted rims..then it's bigger tires...then you get stuck..so you lift it..then comes suspension, then transfer case slipper and better. driveshafts, then, Bumpers, Skid Pans, Rock Sliders, Body Armor, Lights, Racks, Jacks, Winch's, Batt's, OH MY GOD IT WON'T STOP!!! Why didn't I listen to my mother when she said "don't paint those Rims on my driveway!!! and Stop Hanging Around JunkYards!!!"

My jeep had nice chrome rims when I first got it but over time they got to looking rough SO I went to autozone got some "chrome" spray paint and painted them and they actually looked good.

Everybody kept asking if I got me rims. Haha.

They are dirty again.......
