Plastidip wheels

Finally changed over my tires and decided to plasti dip them. What do you guys think? I'm not sure I like.....



Used decks of cards instead of tape to protect the tire

I like the result you achieved on the wheels, but think that your white stripes go better with a lighter colored wheel. If you removed the white stripes or put on dark stripes that match the wheel it'd look better IMHO...

I think it looks good. I prefer Gloss black wheels though.

Thanks everyone for the feedback! I have the same concern with the black wheels and white stripes which is why I'm not sure I like it. Probably should have gone with the grey but the store only had 2 cans and didn't want to chance running out.

I'm not changing my stripes, I like my creamcycle.but it does make exterior mods challenging. I don't have my windows tinted, which is next, so maybe that will help balance it a bit....

I like the rims... Been thinking about doing mine. Where did you find the spray at?

I like how the rims turned out as well! Got it at Auto Valu, not sure if you have those there.

Sure dont... I called autozone the other day and the guy acted like he didnt know what I was talking about and I was in no mood to bother trying to explain. I'm sure somewhere around town will carry it.
