I don't know what kind of wheels you painted... steel? If so, don't
bother... buy used W126 14" wheels and they will bolt on directly with zero
problem... you could get them dirt cheap.

If they are aluminum wheels with a clearcoat you can get them bead
blasted, then put a new clearcoat on.

If it's aluminum alloy wheels, there are shops that you can send them
to that will completely refinish them for you, including welding out
dings.
