I'm not sure yet... maybe painting the wheels would be the better solution? But to find the perfect color again, won't be easy...

Maybe I will try it on two wheels and put them on one side of the car for some time...
I've only used total of about 6 cans. Which was about 50 bucks.
I used 2 cans of black for base.
2 cans for copper
2 cans for smoked.
Reason why I used more of copper and smoked is just to get the right color tone. Now if I have to redo it, then I'm sure I would need only 4 cans. Also, even if you want to spend less, you can skip the smoked and use less copper.
