Default Is it bad?

I recently tinted my tail lights, and I liked how it looked, so I thought I'd go ahead and paint my wheels black as well. I didn't care to take them off before painting, so I put newspaper behind the wheels to protect the rotors from being painted.

...well I forgot to stuff one wheel. I put probably two paints of primer on the wheel before I realized it was going through the spokes. Any idea of the problems it could cause or will? Or don't worry about it until something goes wrong.

It might smoke a little bit when you first drive it, but it should be fine.

I don't think it will hurt anything. You only wish primer and paint would stick that good! lol it should come right off when you apply the brakes as long as the coat isn't super thick. Worst comes to worse your pads get clogged and have to replace them. Unlikely

get some brake cleaner wipe it off, and you should be golden if the paint isn't to thick.
