A buddy of mine used plain ol spray paint to paint his volks black. He sanded, primered, taped off the tire, and sprayed away. Worked like a charm and probably cost him $6.

Did he just do the outside of the rim or the whole rim?

Konig Monsoons painted black or gunmetal? Yep. Kinda hard to see, but look at the sig. Those are a set of free Monsoons that I got and painted black.
