[QUOTE="Kyle Hadfield, post: 1024424, member: 71925"] I have wanted to paint my stock wheels but it's also my dd. The biggest thing holding me back was prep time, wanting to clean front and back of rim and paint front (if changing from stock color would you paint the backside also?) I have lots of tar build up in the back and peeling clear on front. I took 1 wheel off a couple months back to try and clean the backside which is what put it on the back burner for me. Regular tar/bug remover, brakekleen, scrubbing couldn't remove it all. I think I'll try the paint on stripper doing 1 wheel at a time/weekend (wouldn't look all jacked up if I could get 2 done at a time). I guess instead of buffing I'll do sanding for adhesion. I have the other style stock wheels. [/QUOTE]
