So my Vespa didn't have a spare tire. I picked up a used wheel, which I think is from a 95 PK. Something interesting, there is much less rust on the 1995 wheel than my 2007 wheels. Plus, it was really difficult to grind off the primer, so I'm going to say if you've got 20 year old+ wheels, you may be in good shape.
2007 wheel, wow, that's a lot of pitting
Now that all the rust is cleaned up, time to paint
And there you go, 3 wheels primed with Dinitrol 443 95% Zinc primer. That should take care of my rust protection. I'm going on vacation to Barcelona for a week, so that should let the primer cure. When I get back I'll look at whether I'm going to seal them with acrylic primer before topcoat or not.
