i might get flamed, but i think you just ruined a awesome set of white wheels. But great job on getting those scratches out!

Worst comes to worst i can always paint em back, but im gonna keep experimenting. I forsee at least 5 different paintjobs by september lol

Looks good. Just a helpful hint, if you put index cards around the bead of the tire, you wont get overspray on the tires. might keep you from having to do so much prep work for the clear coat.

Thanks for the tip scarface. I just end up going up peicee by peice with masking tape then using a peace of cardboard to seal it around the tire(if that makes sense), or in other words alot more work that your way. Ill remember that for next time though. Well clearcoat is busy drying so one more sanding session and the rims will be good to go.

Looking Good. Now you need to work that color into other areas. You said you know someone that does Vinyl Graphics? Try that, something easy don't overkill it.
