Hello
I have a 91 240 that I put turbo wheels on. Last summer I spent a few hours sandblasting, priming, and painting them. I bought graphite colored duplicolor paint at autobarn.com. It is paint made specialy for wheels. The color is a nice dark graphite that has not chipped, faded or peel thus far. I spent about 150 dollars to do the wheels the right way. I had them unmounted before I sandblasted them. I bought the sandblaster at sears for 50 dollars. The paint was 18 dollars for 2 cans including shipping. It was more than enough paint. The remounting is was got me. It was 55 dollars. I spent a few more dollars on files to take out some of the curb rash.
Look great on my all black 240. I would def go with dark wheels again
