Yup Plasti Dip. It only cost about $6 a can and you would only need about 3 cans for 4 20" rims. That is what I did.

I go through a machine wash weekly and it hasn't came off since. It can withstand even some powerwashers, not all. I've had it on for a couple of months and had no problems. You can buy this at The Home Depot or Menards. The only two places I have found them at and I looked everywhere that sells spray paint.

I've heard it holds up pretty well on the wheels. I have it on my bezels and rear bowtie with no issues. I picked mine up at a home depot.

I pressure wash mine (on fan setting) with no problems. If applied correctly, you should use about a can per wheel.

A guy in my neighborhood paid me to plastidip his wheels black. Here are the results. These are 24 inch wheels and I still only used 4 cans
