What paint to use for wheels
The paint on my wheels is flaking a bit ina few areas, what paint should I use to paint them? Any particular brand or type? any other steps I should perform like should I prime them or sand them down?
They are ghetto golds that were painted by the previous owner who did not like gold wheels.

If not powdercoating, definitely check for wheel paint and their colors. If you don't use "wheel paint," as long as you prep the surface, put enough coats on, and enough clear coat over it, it should still hold up fairly well I would bet.
