Not sure exactly where to put this but lets try here. I have a question about painting my wheels. Can I take my Enkei rims and paint them differently and can I like sand and paint over the chrome lip? if I can do any of this How exactly do I go about doing this? Thanks -Dan

first off i dont see why you would wanna paint enkei rims but anyhow youve got your own reasons.i just got done painting my stockers and i just sanded them down with a good air sander and painted gloss black ..as for the chrome lip not a good idea cause paint wont stick very good to that id just mask off the lip it will set your paint job off alot better good luck!

so just sand down, prime, paint, and then clear coat sounds like anything else...alright thanks alot! oh but should I use High Temp paint or just regular? thanks again. ~Dan

There's a nice thread about a member who painted his stock alloys. They turned out very nice. I believe he's got a how-to somewhere, also.

it's fairly easy to do. just make sure you take your time and do it right. the only spot i had trouble was taping. my hands are big and it was hard for me to get a straight edge. i just had my wife tape and it turned out great. i have pics of my painted stockers if you would like to see. if you have any questions, feel free to pm me.
