    I'm thinking about Line-x'ing my steel wheels what do you guys think? Will it work or am I crazy? I really don't wanna spend tons of money on new wheels. When I could spend around 100 bucks to line-x the wheels and rear bumper and then just get new wheels, what say you guys? Crazy or no?

    I'm thinking about it, I actually MADE money today on installing my lift, found a $100 bill on the ground at the parts store, and bought the tools we needed and lunch and still have 50 bucks. So I'm gonna see what I can do.

    Line-X looks great! I did it, but on the wheels? Hmmm. I don't know. You can always be the first. You definitely need to post pics after you've done that.

    Did you end up going through with this? I'm wondering because I've been planning on powder coating my wheels, but lately I've been toying with the idea of line-xing them.
