What material? I would take them off just to prevent overspray. Also dont forget to scuff. Prep is most of the paint job.

I am not trying to make them look super good. I just dont have a jack or proper materials to easily get the wheels off the car. I am eventually gonna get some 22"s just wanna do some temporary blacking out //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif Heres a pic of my explorer

just get some flat black krylon, and make sure you wash the wheels really good and use some degreaser, and make sure you mask the tires good

I dont think there would be a point to pay to get the powdercoated when I am definetly upgrading to actually black 22"s in the future.

LOL Rob and Big is funny as ****. Although his Tahoe is more of a blackish grey look. His old Denali though was all black //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
