Painted 10 hole rims

Has anyone painted their 10 hole rims black?

I posted a thread about it a while back. Has some really good info in there. Gimme a sec and i'll find. Alot of people do it. I think it looks sharp as hell. I'm gonna do it to my old 10 holes when I get my new wheels on.

If your curious what it looks like, just search SSP Mustang on google or somethin.

I think they look great painted black with stainless caps on the SSP cars. Not sure how they'd look on your Capri. I like them chromed or polished on a capri.

I think a set of black 10 holes can make any car look cooler. lol

I've been thinking about the same thing. Here's a crappy photoshop:

I did the rims on my Jeep and left the outer edge natural (with clear coat) so the wheels could be dynamically balanced (weights both sides of wheel) and not have to worry about painting the lead weights. Here is a shot of them:

Duplicolor wheel paints and clear coat have held up well to a lot of abuse.

I think they can look good if done right.

This version looks better, but I think it would be harder to prep and paint:
