   You could powder coat the wheels with the Eastwood powder coating 
system, but I didn't like their silver or aluminum color for the 
wheel.  Also if you have to true your wheels someday you will break the 
coating and since this is my first car with wire wheels and its not on the 
road yet, I don't if this is true, but I always believed that truing a wire 
wheel is something that has to be done periodically.  Maybe I am wrong on 
that but I left the wheels painted and I am powder coating everything else 
on the car.

p.s. I don't like Eastwoods Green either, not at all BRG.  I know they 
don't claim it to be but I was hoping it would be close...guess my car will 
be red.
