Still waiting on OP to reply as to whats wrong with his wheels.
Plastidip just plain sux. I did mine because I went square 20x9 and the used ones I bought were polished as oppose to my painted. It was only till I scuffed and painted them when I got new tires. That plasticrap just looked dull and lifeless.....and I bought the clear. They held brake dust like a sponge. Do not plastidip....either repaint or polish.

Lexani is a very well known company. I knew about them when I was a kid in a small town in northern Ontario.

Either find some take offs, check Craigslist, plasti dip, or save up. Pretty much your options.

I'll look into this option. Being the idiot that I am, I curbed two out of the four wheels already (only 14k miles).

Honestly, take your time, look at youtube videos, and actually paint the wheels with duplicolor wheel coat paint in a can and duplicolor clear coat. If you take your time, they will come out great and last a long time. Avoid plasticrap.

I don't think he's got $1600 to burn if he is posting this thread. He can get the wheels powder coated for $50-$60 each plus cost to dismount/re-mount/balance which is another $20 per wheel, for under $300 he can powdercoat and completely give his car a new and custom look. That's the way I would go if I were him

This is actually what I used for my wheels. Duplicolor custom wrap ez peel or something like that. I just say plastidip since everyone knows what that is.
