Coloured Wheels

Hi

I want to get a coloured wheels on my bike to change things a bit (like the one you see on the new Kona Paddy Wagon). Is there a way to colour it yourself, or do I need to get a new rim that already comes coloured?

you can get rims anodized or powder coated, but you can likely get colored rims at a price lower than that. also, dont forget the million other more creative ways you can customize.

I think he was referring to spray painting or something similar to that.
