Has anyone been successful at putting a more desirable "silver tone" color on
their new Dayton wire wheels recently.   I am in the process of purchasing new
ww wheels for the Healey but as mentioned previously
the drab grey paint that Dayton insists is original is soooo butt ugly.  I
have
a set on my MGA  and they really don't pop out like the Dunlap color does.

How much of a pain in the ass is it to put a DIY paint coat on the Daytons.
My MGA ww look like they have a top clear coat on them so I imagine that has
to be sanded off first?  I really hate to go through the entire job just to
see the paint start to peel off in a year or two.

Yes,  I know the chrome ww look nicer but I still need the tires,  drum
balancing,  and wheel truing just to get the Healey rolling safely again.
Not to mention a paint job.


What is the personal experience in painting the Daytons?

Mark
