If its rustoleum antique bronze that is what I used on my wheels. If you want light bronze with more of a reflective metal one color bright look use one coat, maybe two. This was one or two coats:






Came out darker with more coats so choose wisely:














Sorry for gross amount of pics but I want you to get the look you want. I wish I would have sprayed less coats...

So your wheels are 35mm offset right?
