Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I plastidipped my RS rims and it was called cheap looking. Same guy saw it done to another car and called it cool. I guess it depends on the weather or something .

Mine did not peel. Not until I curbed them anyway, then they sorta peeled, but hung on. It's pretty durable from my experience.

If you happen to decide on the wheels, do yourself a favor and don't buy the discount tire ones. You'll still end up having to buy tires and it'll be more expensive. If u want the wheels, go to the members classifieds and look for them. They will probably be cheaper there. My buddy payed close to 2 grand for his replicas with tires at discount tire.... Much cheaper in the classifieds.

Also, I have the lt rims plastidipped and if done right, you can't even tell they aren't painted.

Looks like you have enough consensus for a decision. Plastidip wheels, and get exhaust.

I really like the SS Rims as well, they are just too narrow. I want to run 20x10 Front, 20x11 Rear... and there are no replicas in these sizes
