Thumbs up Did the ole Plasti-Dip on the wheels. Not to bad

So i decided for ***** and giggles to sling some PD on these wheels. Pulled them off gave them a good cleaning, went to town. Have about 3/4 a can between both wheels. I actually like the way they came out. I am not normally big on black wheels cuz I feel they are played out, but have to say these look good. Thinking seriously about having them powdered satin black. What do you all think ?

It looks cool man , but I'm with you black wheels are played out .

Now if you kept the lip /outer polished and black the inside spokes that would look good , gotta have something to break up all that black.

I also like to see a red or silver pinstripe on all black wheels , makes the pop instead of looking "all black " lol.

Polished lip or it just screams "spare wheels!".

I am on the fence even more about the polished lip vs the entire wheel being done..

I much prefer the solid black vs. polished lip, but a semi gloss or sating would look cleaner.

what wheel/tire combo do you have? I like the sidewalls on those. I like a little meat on the rim, but don't like the square sidewall.
