Painting a Set of Stock Alloy Wheels for autocrossing.

Before: Wheels are a little dirty...

Cleaner, but could use a little more scrubbing and possibly some sanding.

I neglected to take pics after applying the silver base coat to the face of the wheels.
Taped and ready for the second color.

Painting the inner wheel red. Paint is the same color code as the car, from Tower Paint.

With the inner wheel painted, removed the tape from the front of the spokes. Now you can see the silver.
