thanks guys, all i got was a can of primer, bronze wheel paint (i think duplicolor makes it) and about 2 cans of clear. used about 2 GOOD coats of primer, then painted the wheels, then used about a 1/2 can of clear per wheel. and i saw another member on here that used flash cards to put in between the wheel and tire to block the paint from getting on the tire and that method worked VERY well

they look great, only problem I foresee in the future is when you get you new tires an have to get the tires rebalanced ( they have to pull the painted weight )
