Dipping my wheels
Anyone know how much it would cost to have my wheels dipped to change the color? Also, what are your thoughts on this? In general, how long could I expect the paint to last on the wheels if I have this done? I am not much of a gear head.

Get it done by a professional!!! It should last for a long time. Really depends on rocks and other things hitting and chipping the wheels.

Have them powdercoated. Best way to change the look of wheels IMO. Extremely durable and an excellent finish.

powdercoat... My GTO wheels have been done for almost 4 years/50,000 miles. Now there not perfect anymore, but well worth the $ for color change.
