Looks real good, I plan on doing mine this weekend. I waited until I got some new tires. My brother plastidipped his wheels on his Dodge Dakota and he beat that thing until the rear diff was about to go and traded it. The plastidip on the wheels were 3 years old and still looked good.

Almost 1 can per wheel. Thanks for the kind words!

Sorry, I know this is an old thread, but you've got the look I'm going for on my new (to me) '06. I apologize if you've answered these questions elsewhere, but: what are the tires you've got on there and what size? And is your suspension stock?

Good to know! I really dig the look of them. I might just do that same treatment: black out the wheels too.

Looks good.

Any particular steps you followed to plastidip the wheels?
