    It is 100% application.
    I have my winter wheels dipped almost two years now and still look new.
    As far as wheels to buy... its tough to give advice without narrowing down a style..
    It's personal preference. I have xd hoss 17
    Black and machine finish

    yep, its all about the prep work and application. I had my last set dipped for over 2 years with not a single blemish. Powerwashed them many times. If you do it right, it will only come off when you want it to. Here's my current setup btw :D

    Are those MB racing rims? I have them and IMO they look great chromed, no offense but those don't look that great. What are you thinking of for tires?

    I love your truck! I thought so lol it wasn't my decision to plastic dip but it makes a huge different in style. I bought my truck the way it is now. I'm excited to get down on my truck and personalize it. It runs great and its super fun to take my dog out on trails or out to explore the desert.
