Here's a picture of my wheels with the rim painted black but the lip left alone.

I spray painted my wheels black, they have held up really well. And if you want to paint them, masking tape easily slides down into the grove between the lip and rim face. Prep is key; make sure they are clean before and after u sand them and obviously before you start spraying anything.

Well I picked up 2 more rims so I have a matching set and my car will be going up on blocks for the winter pretty soon since I bought a winter beater yesterday!! I plan on doing this over the winter... But might be sooner then later just because I'm excited to do it!!
