I just got back from Canada, but before I left I changed my rear brake pads and put in a new hardware kit. I put my odl wheels/tires on for the trip for better gas mileage and so nobody stole my new ones so while I put my new ones on I decided to Paint my drums cuz they were bad showing through the black smokes. I painted em with gloss black Rustoleum.
stock wheels/tires = fugly

lol I enjoy the raked look....

Before

After

The result

 

nice work! looks good black... its looks funny when people paint them red...

 

I thought the same thing... I just about painted em red... then I thought about it! HAHA

 

The black looks really good, I am going to have to do that when I change my rear brakes

 

either silver or black looks good, so far mine are still satin black...

 

I paint mine everytime I rotate my wheels.

the rust dont stick out and make the wheels look bad

 

i painted my drums flat black and then the calipers hammered silver. looks good.

 

looks good

 

wander how some bedliner paint would hold up or does it all eventually chip off no matter what you use?

 

Looks good to me. I think red would have looked good. Might look good on my truck too.

 

Looks good man. I was thinking about painting mine the toreador red like my truck. Or, maybe black.

 

I think it would eventually chip off

I havenoticed mine slowly going away each time I spray them. mostly on the outer part of the drum

 

Thanx guys, Ive been wanting to do this since I got my new wheels!

 

you should do the front in red with that caliper paint or do them in black as well

 

I was debating on doing them today, but I really was leaning more on painting the calipers red... make it look like a set of high performance calipers.... hmm, might have to do that sometime soon!

 

That may look good but I think I would stick to black looks cleaner IMO

 

Looks good, have you thought about painting the frame underneath the cab?

 

^^ thought about it and it kills me that I havnt done it yet.... damn ohio weather....

 

Hmm.. I wonder what my truck woudl look like.. if I painted my drums white.. hummm

Edit: naw, nevermind.. 5 seconds later and I decided I'll just stick to black.


But.. maybe some bling bling chrome?!? Mwaha!

 

Looks good, we have matching drums now but mine will be covered up nor with stock wheels... then sold..

 

Poor mark, keep the 98 and get a bike and give me the 07!

 

I already got the bike.

98 isnt worth keeping anymore time for it to go..

Its getting torn apart tommarow and parting out and putting back to stock

Drums behind my rims looked good for a week or 2 though lol.

 

^^ lol thats cool. I was gonna say, I cant think of anything I want/can use off your truck.
