I can't say I've done rock crawler rims or anything. I did a stock set of rims for my 300zx a while ago with spray paint. Went silver. I used adhesive promotor, primer, and an enamel silver with a metallic finish. good results. i'm ocd, so i needed to paint them inside instead of outside due to some grass and whatnot, but overall i'd rate my experience about 7 out 10. The hard part is sanding the finish off to start...
