Default Painting OEM wheels AP2 V2

I came acorss this picture and really like the contrast, not sure if this is a member here but it looks good! Anyway what paint would be the best for painting the area between the spokes black I see VHT and Duplicolor make wheel specific paints has anyone used these and how good are the results and the durability. Obviously a powder coat would be the best but much more expensive.

That member's user is 07Rio... I think in the pic above the painted area is Duplicolor's Graphite.

If I remember right he did the insides of them black (like in your pic), but he recently sprayed the whole wheels a graphite color and then did the insides black again which looks sweet. I remember the thread when he did it, but can't seem to find it. Just PM him and ask him yourself, I do know he used duplicolors wheel paint though. https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/849...#entry20314838
