Want to get the wheels on my 1989 Fendt 311 LSA tidied up. Won't be doing the job myself so whats best enamel , 2 pack , powder coat or is there any other method I dont know about?
I'm very much an amature so can't say for sure but I'd certainly dismantle them, otherwise you won't get paint where the lugs meet the centre and rust bound to appear eventuallyIf its ok to use bog standard enamel I might have a go at doing the job myself. Wouldnt try the 2 pack.
Would it be a big no no to do it without seperating rims from centres?

There is a cheating way you can get away with it, that would make @REStracTORATION cringe (sorry!).Want to get the wheels on my 1989 Fendt 311 LSA tidied up. Won't be doing the job myself so whats best enamel , 2 pack , powder coat or is there any other method I dont know about?
+1 for glasurit dear but the next level of paint when price allowsWe do all wheels the same way.
1) Blast,
2) nitrofest protector primer,
3) epoxy prime for build and levelling
4) 2k polyurethane.
Always urethane because if you knock it, it won't chip like powder coat. 2k acrylic if you want a show finish as the gloss level is higher and deeper than polyurethane.
We paint all outer panels in 2k acrylic as the uv protection is higher and it looks better. Same paint your car would be done in. We use spies hecker or glasurit.
All iron work or chassis 2k polyurethane.

We use hmg with very good results,
Primers are from spectral which have excellent build qualitys.
You really can make paint sing with the correct products
