I'm going to guess the old gold rims were from a 250r. Any paint will chip and look like crap after a few rides.

The gold rims were anodized that way most likely. It was popular on the older trikes and mid 80's quads. Anodizing would be much more durable than paint while providing a uniform looking product, but rattle cans are going to be much cheaper.

a rattle can job won't last- like jgar said-
if you clean those rims up real nice inside and out they should look really good.

They might have been of a 250r cuz I had an 84 and the outter and inner lips were like a Yamaha rim because the ones on my 300 have a bigger rounded lip but anyways where could I get them done anywhere around I live. I'm located in portage pa and am a few miles away from ebensburgh and does any one know how mutch it would cost me cuz I just Spent almost 1000 buks on nerf bars , bumper, grab bar, and brakes herrings and all of that Funn stuff and don't have mutch to spend hahah ya no how that is
