Yes, you need to prep them. Are you doing the coating yourself or hiring out? If you're hiring out, ask the vendor. They usually do their own prep.

None of those colors!! You should paint them like a gun metal gray or bronze. That s**t is HOT!

You can expect this kind of result in the back if you go with black. By an overly-complex circumstance I have only one black wheel, so sorry I can't show you a picture with a pair of black wheels.
