My T wagon wheels were lookin a bit "skanky"

so I broke out the "rattle cans"

and
with the help of some plastic cups and a coffee can lid
for paint masks.

I came up with

The dismount is always the hard part. :(

If you give me the wheels and tires I can get them dismounted for you for free. I work at goodyear tires. Pm me if you want me 2.
(That was to Laurel or whoever else want me 2)

that sounds like a great deal! I'll make you dinner for your effort. It'll be this spring though, as I'm waiting on another set of wheels/tires from art

After sanding the ruff stuff

I painted the centers and the spoke holes with semi flat black.

Then I "mask" the holes with plastic cups and the centers with a coffee can lid.

Then I painted the wheels with
aluminum silver.

Hope this helps
