    So I don't hi-jack the other thread I wanted to post my wheels for the CJ6.
    I sandblasted the wheels except for the original inner part where the factory part # sticker is.
    From left to right is before, original, and after. Only deviation is on the factory white rim there is overspray in the vents but I taped them off to cut down on overspray. I used gloss black Krylon Rust Tuff and Mw100 wheel paint from NAPA.
