not enough $$ right now to get new aftermarket wheels, yeah i know they start to peel. i had a tacoma before and had the rims painted black and they would peel, but when the right paint is chosen they dont peel as easily

Other than the fact that they will look awful, you can certainly paint your wheels. Preparation is everything and if you wanna do it right, pull them off and have the tires removed.

Could always use plasti dip and if you don't like it you can peel it off. Do a youtube search for "plasti dip wheels" and you'll see what I mean.
