I had some cheap chrome rims that I wanted to paint black. I bought 3 or 4 cans of engine enamel, and gave them like seven coats. I went crazy on them, but they lasted the whole summer, and even now they only have a few specks, and one is peeling a LITTLE bit. Pretty good for under ten bucks. (wash the wheels first, and get all dirt /brake dust off. I didnt sand paper any of it, but that mightve helped.

by the way, It looked REALLY good, a few people mistaked them for like real expensive jdm style rims at this show I went to. Give it a shot!
