I'm looking to do roughly the same thing. Did you end up sanding your wheels and priming them or just the spray paint.
I would do a clear coat on top of that, but that's just me.

Looks Great
I have looked into this product in the last few days. I was wondering what you think durability will be and do you think they will clean up good. I am thinking about doing white(i think black rims on a black car might be 2 much), but worried if i hit it with a power washer/brush to clean up the brake dust, i will ruin it and be fixing it every 8 weeks or so.

its lasts quite a long time if you put enough coats on
and the finish all depends on the coats you put on either rough or smooth
and i havent cleaned any of it ever so im not sure how white would look with brake dust and such things getting on it
i sprayed it with the tires on i put tire shine on the tires prior so the removal of the dip would be easier
no primers or clears are needed
but you can get glossifers from dipyourcar.com
