I just think it would look better if they were shiny, thats all.

Yeh, it would make them look a little nicer. But I am not sure if it would work? Would the high temp make it haze up? Do they even make high temp clearcoat? I have no idea. Any one know?

use wheel paint clearcoat. ITs made for wheels and high temp because of location near brake system. I did and it looks nice, and brake dust doesnt stick

Very nice. I was gonna paint mine today but I couldn't break the torque on one of my lug nuts with my cheap ratchet (I actually thought I broke the ratchet once) and I wasn't about to scratch the wheel up again with the normal lug nut tool.
