    I love black on red. Hit em with some scotch brite really good, then get on Amazon and order some VHT primer, VHT gloss black, and VHT clear.

    I'd powder coat them. Usually runs 50-75 a wheel, plus whatever dismounting and mounting and balancing the tires cost you. You'll get a better finish that's more durable, looks 5 times better. And very little actual work on your part

    Gunmetal would look pimp, just have them powdercoated and be done with it.
