Were they out of black or silver plasti dip in your area? You can get some nice black paint by rustolum that covers rust and inhibits it growth in the future. I used it on the steel wheels on both my 88 wagoneer and 99 metro.
I pulled off the trim piece to check clearances etc. before drilling anything, and the bolts have lock nuts and washers on the other side, so it had to come off anyway.

Black or silver? There was plenty of that on the shelf at Home Depot, but I went for red. Because life is short!
