niiiice looking. so you painted yours -- did you sand them down before paint, or use any primer? I am looking to do the same. Ive got a silver speed, and want either black or dark gunmetal; havn't decided on caliper color yet...probably either red, silver, or black.

i just made sure they were very very clean and sanded them with a very light grit sand paper. Didnt use any primer either. I am currently painting some P5 rims that are stripped to the bare metal and i am being forced to use primer because of it.

What kind of paint did you use? Just regular paint for painting metal surfaces or something specifically made for painting wheels?

on those i used specific wheel paint found at any auto parts store i believe its made by duplicolor. The recent set of p5 rims i just painted i used rustoleum semi flat black and it came out great

Thanks! Would you happen to have any pictures of the P5 wheels?
