Painted my rims.

I painted my Tundra grade rims black using Duplicolor Primer, Eninge Paint and Automotive paint.
Looks ok I think...

I tried to paint just the Toyota symbol the red color but it wasn't working out so well.

I think it would look awesome with some meaner looking tires too.

Yeah, it doesn't look so good where the tire meets the rim but you have to get real close to notice.

I cut out a round peice of cardboard and stuffed into the already painted rim and carefully sprayed the pinstripe, then after that dried I taped off the pinstripe and cleaned up a little overspray on the rim with the black paint.

I had my wheels powder coated, the toyota emblem comes out of the center caps on the wheels I did so i painted them white to match the truck.

I like it! It's cool when you can figure out something to do to your rig that's totally different from all the rest. Great job! Duplicolor is good stuff. A more agressive tire would look good too!

Yup that looks slick as hell man, I noticed it in one of your pic's on another thread. You should concider painting your calipers black or even red.

Gives the truck a nostalgic look… I like it! Thanks for the pictures! More aggressive tire would be nice too! Just a thought for the new tires, white lettering facing out?
