I have not done it but I'd also recommend something on the "inside" like a good coat of POR15 or some other nice coating. I have blasted rims and gave them a good coat of some enamel paint which held up good when the tires were later changed. If care is taken I think you will be alright. Since your mounting them yourself you have not wasted any money but used your time only. Just my opinion | | |
