When I picked up my used 33s, they came with a set of stock Jeep rims. They don't look that bad, but I was debating on painting them and I was wondering if anyone has done it with a similar rim.

Here's the rim:


My XJ is black, and my current MT rims are black, but I don't think those rims will fit my new 33s, so I might have to use these stock rims. If I paint them, I'll have it done right.


For reference, here's how they look on my Jeep at the moment.

Those are the wheels I have that I painted....my center cap is a bit different though. I used rustoleum metallic black.

Those look pretty good actually. Part of me likes the silver rims, since it gives it some contrast, but I also like all black just as much.


Thanks for the pics.

I painted my last rims I had on my old xj, I used spray paint and they turned out great. if u like the contrast of the colors maybe go with a silver or metalic silver.

if you go all black, every scratch and nick will show up as bright silver. Just go with a silver. Just sayin'

Those rims look good sprayed with the metallic black

Yeah, I'm leaning more towards silver since it was mentioned. I also considered a shade of green or something similar, but I'm iffy on that. I usually don't like rims painted those colors, but I figured it'd be acceptable since it's a mud truck.


But, silver is looking to be the best bet.
