Interesting.

Bumping this, since I'm thinking hard about riding the stockers for a while after I do my drop. Currently they're black for me (on Whiteout/SWP) and while it looks great, it also looks very...boring.

Was debating going bronze or neon or something, but the stock wheels are just so busy (15 spokes!!!).

There are some great aftermarket wheel pics of bright/neon blue, green, or red, but they're all on great looking 5-7 spoke designs. I'm worried the color will look overpowering on the stockers.

Can anyone with some photoshop skills do up a white twin with bright blue, neon green, pink/red and bronze/gold/copper stockers? Also, real life pics are welcome too, of course!

I was trying dipping my rota rt5 yesterday. Color turned out good I think but I messed up before i put them on so back to the drawing board.lol this weekend, I will try again becausr this is the bronze I want!

Rota hyper black + 4-5 coat of smoke + 2 coat of copper metalizer.

Looks good man, I always loved the penny finish like HRE uses.

hattrickey · 03-31-2014, 09:55 PM

I plasti dipped mine about a month ago. 5 coats of aluminum plus one coat of the gloss.

I just did stocks over the weekend. 7 coats black and 1 glossifier. My car is getting everything blacked out so of course I went black. I think they look killer and I'll be sticking with the stock wheels for a while and investing wheel money into something else for the time being. I'll snag a pic of it later.

nunonuna · 05-09-2014, 12:21 PM

Finally had a chance to get it done.

I did little darker than previous picture.

Black x 3-4
Copper x 2-3
Smoked x 2-3 light coat

There is one called smoked plasti dip.
Which is transparent gry or blk.
Depending on how many layers you put on, it adds dark tone to base color.

I got it from pepboys, but it seems any other local store doesn't carry it.
Also you can special order smoked from pepboys. Usually they get it next day or so.
