Black Stock Rims

Got a first gen Tacoma probably going to get some XD series but I want to see how plasti dipped stock rims look. Does anyone have some good pics of how it looks?
BTW Its XD series rims or tires for those wondering

 

Do a search bud, tons of people on TW have derped their stocks. Doesn't look bad, especially if you can't afford new wheels at the moment. Plus, you can always peel it off!

 

Where can you get them dipped at? Never knew people did this. I like my 15 trd off road wheels. I'm also interested in xd black wheels one day. But obviously not until I wear there tires out first.

 

Any home depot they sell cans of Plasti-Dip. pretty easy to apply

 

I am some people and didnt take them off, just wash dry and spray

 

What do you use to spray them with? I've never really looked into this

 

they come in an aerosol can

 

Does some just spray paint them black or what. Who makes the plastic dip

 

Lots of videos on YouTube on how to apply Plasti -dip from wheels to entire cars

 

Ok thanks

 

How long does the plastidip stay on...seems like it would scratch off easy

 

Depends i heard some guys say 5 years, if it scratch off you can always touch it up.

I had mine for over a year now, no problems.

 

It just like any other spray can but this one when dry it turn into rubber. Which you can peel off later if you dont like or want to redo. Its extremely easy to do minus the weather and laziness lol.

Its basically spray evenly and wait a while and respray. Dont do heavy coat but multiple. The more coat the better imo. I had mine on maybe a year more and probably could go more if the tires guy didnt scratch them up bad. It sound like its easy to scratch it off but really its pretty hard to do unless equipment or your hitting it against rock when offroading. Normal usage wont scratch them.

Use those cheap painter plastic to cover the inner wheel if you planning to spray it without taking the tires off. I recommend taking it off for even spray.

 

From experience I would perform the spraying in a garage or make sure there is no wind blowing. I even used blue painters tape a few inches around the badges and it still carried, It sucks removing small flakes of plastidip that blew across your paint

 

spray wd40 or similar product. It will come right off with a clean towel.
