Of course, this is the final answer (as always). In the mean time... I don't care for it. Wheels should be chrome (or aluminum), black, or midnight silver, IMHO. Any other colors should be tastefully added for accent only.

Well, with the fact that its just plastidip, and it really pops, I like it a lot. I probably wouldn't do it to my car, but I think it looks badass.

Looks alright. Execution does not look professional. Just being honest. It looks like you just threw some paint on them while they were on the car. I would remove the rims from the car, clean with pre dip, mask the tires and spray slow. Mist coats are your friend with dip at first. Dip runs very easily if you are not careful. I hope you put enough coats...4-5.... to peel.

ALSO, red dip is pretty translucent. You could make things interesting with using a different base coat like a vintage gold or something like that to make them "pop" a bit more. Just a suggestion.

Overall I like it.

Like others have said, its something different, and you took the time to keep the theme throughout, you just didnt plasti-dip wheels and call it.

And ultimately, if its something you like, who cares about the nay-sayers?
