It's "low hanging fruit". The wheels are off, the drums are rusty. It's an easy fix. |

I have the Porsche Riviera rims (or a knock off of those). You can see the drum, but that's not why I'm painting them. I just want to prevent more rusting, and give them a little color in the process.
Hopefully 1 can of each (primer and paint) will be sufficient for both wheels. I'll get to the front disks eventually. |

| 1 can of each is more than enough. |
