The little help I can give since its an opinionated thing, I had those wheels (and don't particularly care for them personally) I "plasti-dipped" them with the aerosol stuff

Helped make the time they were on there more bearable to me

Their website says you can buy all available colors at Ace Hardware, Do It Best, and Hardware Hank stores.

In my experience with Plastidip the stuff is amazing. I blacked out all my emblems with it, and it's removable if you change your mind.

I know some jeep guys use a rustoleum rattle can bedliner on the rims. It looks sweet and is supposed to hold up well.

Just inherited my wife's 01 blazer after selling my lowered 92 silverado (took me forever to decide to sell it lol) but anyway, I told her I would not sink any money into it like I did my truck. Well, you know how that goes. I am going to hold off buying new wheels until I need tires (probably about year and half maybe 2 years. Think I am going to plastidip the stock ones for now.

Question is about the plastic center piece on the 2001 LT 4 door stock wheels. Will it hold up ok on that you think?

Not the same ones you have, but I painted my factory twists with Rustoleum Wheel Paint in charcoal, and I loooooove mine, and I originally wanted to do them black

VHT makes a "Roll Bar and Chassis Paint" (rattle can/gloss or flat black) that I used on my Camaro wheels. No prep other than cleaning and masking. Sprays EASY and lays out smooth! I beat the crap out of those wheels and never chipped or flaked the paint. Plan on doing the wheels on this new ride with it.
