if they still look ok i wouldn't bother but if they r flaking just make sure u clean off all old paint and once again use a good paint, if the r plastic u can buy a paint thats specifically for plastics

Just scuff and paint. If you have the chrome wheels, I'd leave the center caps chrome, makes it look a bit more classy, less high school rattle can
