You're more than welcome to show off plasti dipped non stock wheels.

I'm not quite a ran of that color with white. How much of a stretch are you running? What wheels are they?

As you can see in my original post, I did not remove the tires and used index cards to provide a barrier around the rim

Great Combo! I wanted to get mine done in white on my Red BRZ, but I've been told that I will get dirty in no time and that the brake shavings would get stuck on it.

Anybody experienced this?

How does the gold look on a DGM? I have black on my stock rims, but might want to try gold.

After having mine plasti dipped for two months, I wouldn't do it again. It chips away too easy. Wasted $50. I am contemplating coating them with proper paint.

I think plaati dip on rims is perfect to see colors in person and test things out before buying rims. Long term they definitely should be powder coated

I have been wearing plasti dip white wheels for about a month now and not much grime sticks. If there is any, while I wash my car I just hose the wheel down and it comes right off.

Retook some photos with my camera when the sun came out:

I like the white car with black accents look. I think I'm going to dip my chrome fender trim too.

Is that matte or gloss?

Only a little over a can and a half. It was super easy.
