im paintin my wheels

ive decided to ditch the cheap lookin after market chrome wheels that i bought my car with and convert back to the stock firebird wheels. I started painting them black (after sanding and prepping of course!) the only thing i wonder is how many clear coats should i top them off with? and will the paint chip when they put the wheel weights on them? as for the color choice, these rims look so hot painted black IMO
