Masked off the tires with index cards (and a round piece of cardboard and duct tape on the back side to prevent overspray on that other side of the tire; also the valve stem). Then two or three heavy coats of high temperature gloss black Rustoleum spray.
Let dry, did other sides, let dry overnight, then reinstalled. Let dry for a week before reinstalling the wheelcovers. Look great now!
The Yaris looked mean without the wheelcovers; I was tempted to leave them off.
