I did my 18's in Plasti Dip as a sort of test run to see if i could live with black wheels ... so far its holding up well but when you get up close you can tell it was done in my backyard lol . When its gets warm here in NY around spring im gonna have them powder coated along with my grill . If you wanna try it out i suggest the plasti dip , leaving the lip is a pain in the *** but if you do the whole wheel it should look pretty professional . If you do try out the plasti dip you need at least 4 coats , i only did three and found that a fourth coat would have been better .
