Plasti Dipped wheel question

When you take the center cap off, you can pop the Toyota logo from the back side. It can be left chrome, or any color you wish.




I want black lug nuts but I keep forgetting to get them.

 

So you dipped them Rims right, Why not dip the bolts too?

 

I dipped my pro comp wheel caps because they were getting terrible looking. The plastidip looks much better and havent had any issues.

 

And lady

 

you could but any time you rotate the tires you will have to redip them. If you buy the black ones you don't have to redip as long as you are careful when removing them.

 

Why would you need to redip? You just do a good job Spraying them, turn when dry.

 

if you dipped you would know. no matter how well you dip when you tighten the lug nuts to spec you will pull the dip.

 

Gotcha

 

Those look nice, but wouldn't these look better?

 

Yea but not everyone has $$$$ for 4 new rims.

 

Of course and lady

 

i had to stop looking at those rims on e-bay or Amazon. My wallet is already on fire.

 

I got a set in black initially then decided I liked the gray better.

 

I spent $700.00 for the rims and $1050.00 for tires. It's just money...well spent.

 

hey if you got it might as well spend it right

 

I agree. Old lady disagree.

 

You just have to make her think it's her idea to spend money.

 

I plastidiped the wheels on my old jeep and they were great for three years until i traded it in on my tacoma. I just occasionally used regular old car wash soap on them and tire cleaner/ shine and they were great. They held up great over the years. I will dip the wheels on my tacoma once I get new tires.

Those SEMA wheels are sweet... but i don;t think they are worth $700 more over my sport wheels. Those of us thinking of plastidiping wheels typically have other hobbies or responsibilities to think about when budgeting our mods.

oOoShadowoOo: You made the right call, the grey looks awesome on the blue truck!

 

Just saw you question. 3" lift from Headstrong off-road. And 287/75/16 BFG KO2's.

 

I had plastidip on my wheels for nearly a year. then i changed my tire shine and when the tire shine touched it, it melted the plastidip off the wheel and looked like complete shit
