I picked these up to use for the winter. I'm keeping the stock all seasons mounted until they wear out, or unless I determine I REALLY need snow tires. I figured they'd look good done up in black since that's the look my Mini has going for it now. I won't likely mount them until after Thanksgiving, or whenever the first snowfall is predicted for Chicago, so no pics on the car until then. Duplicolor Flat Black Wheel Paint. No clearcoat. Taped off the rim section, and used an aerosol can cap for the circle around the Mini Logo. I initially left the whole center cap silver, but it didn't look quite right. Here is how they turned out:
Very nice paint job. Had those wheels on my last MC and always thought about doing exactly that, but never got the chance. They came out real nice. Good job!
