  I agree, the MGB wheel mask is not worth it.  To get a nice
  crisp line, buy some fine-line masking tape at your local
  bodyshop supply house.  Center the tape right over the outline
  of the spoke pressing in the wheel.  Run your fingernail in
  the groove all the way around the wheel to seat the tape,
  then trace the stamping groove carefully with your sharp,
  pointy tool-o-choice (x-acto knife, razor, etc). Peel off the
  inside tape tracing and spray-away. 

  Prime and paint the entire wheel with a few coats of silver
  first.  Let them dry for a few days then tape/mask them off
  and paint the centers black.  If you are using spray-bums,
  the Rustoleum semi-gloss black is the correct glossiness.   

  Good luck!
