Im thinking of painting my wheels black, but ive never done it before, so any help/advice would be great.

What sort of primer, paint, grit paper do i need ?
Matty Lee's just done a set of track wheels for his yaris.

I'd suggest using wet and dry, starting off with a fairly low grit and working your way upto a high grit. The more stages you do the better and smoother the finish will be.

Primer will need to be sutiable for the paint you use, i.e don't use a dark primer for a light paint.

I sure someone will correct if I'm wrong!
buy the new fast car and turn to page 181 (i think) there is a re-furb guide im gonna use for doing mine

as ste said coop use loads of different grades of wet and dry to get it smooth as and then its fairly easy after that !!!
