Speedster wheels

Hi I'm new here!

I'm working on my first model - a Tamiya Porsche Speedster - and the wheels are molded in chrome, but the centers are supposed to be body colored. I'm using Tamiya spray lacquer paint, and I was wondering if I should just spray it directly onto the wheels, or if I should prime them first - like the body and other parts. Either way I plan on using liquid mask to mask the chrome rims.
Any ideas?

Thanks

If you want the wheels to match the car, then paint them the same way you do the car.
