Any suggestions on painting 13 year old H3 wheels?

usually you get them powder coated. its about 100 bucks a wheel to refinish. it really depends on what your budget or preferences are. a can of rustoleum can also go a long ways.

I powder coated my oem wheels satin black and they turned out awesome. Used rustoleum on the center caps. I'd definitely recommend powder coat over rattle can. There's also the option of plasti dip if you're on a budget. If your current rims are chrome you can't powder coat unless you have the chrome removed first

You can purchase a sand blaster all in one gun cheap from HF. Just look up the videos on UTub and have at it. Its kinda a redneck way of doin it but it works. Its how ill do mine when and if i do.
