i'd also like to know.
 
I've done a few sets. You need to mask off the area you don't want paint to stick. I'd do 4-5 layers thick. Then sand blast the area you want to paint. Clean the area really well with wax & grease remover, then spray epoxy primer. Let the epoxy flash for minimum 30 min before shooting color. You'll never believe this, but I've had best luck with Rustoleum paint....it really holds up well.
 
i decided to go ahead and just murder the wheels out and have them powder coated thanks for the replies all i'll post some before and after picks. hope to have my lift in a couple weeks as well.
