No, painted drums are tacky IMHO. If they're rusty I'd paint them flat black but that's about it.

Here is a picture of my 4x4 on chrome Trans am wheels.
I have a matching 5th wheel too!
I just tried lowering the front via torsion bars.
4 turns it didn't lower that much, I'm considering removing the bolts now.

Be careful if you do. There is a thing called "chevy lean" on some vehicles. its just a term for one side lower then the other. I pulled my bolts and the driver side was higher then the passenger side. So i set mine back to factory. Sucked. I guess lowering keys for me.

I like the stance it has, kinda menacing
keep lowering them equally until one of the torsion bar bolts falls out, then thats as low as you can go while staying level. from the factory to get mine level the bolts were a half inch different in their adjustment.
