I did it on the Ray wheels that came with my Lancer Ralliart, this is actually a great how to on the Evo forums. I've had them for 2 years and no chipping.

But essentially, like everyone says, patience.

I would recommend:

- sanding first
- 4 coats of primer
-4 coats of the color you are using,
- 2 clear coats if you are staying relatively flat or matte
- 4-5 clear coats if going for glossy
