Just dont clear them i made that mistake the first set of wheels i painted. without clear they look great with a nice flat bronze finish. plus it makes touch up's alot easier although i have not needed to touch them up yet.

I had a set of stockers painted bronze too. It held up pretty good for when I had them. I also painted a set of BBS for autoX. Those still look new after acouple autox's.
