I bought 4 cans of Plasti Dip at Home Depot for 5.98 each & it took around 3hrs from start to finish. It was very easy to work with. It goes on very easy & heavy enough that I don't think I was ever close to even having a run with it. I did 5 coats on each wheel with the first 2 coats I went very very light with & then the last 3 I went pretty heavy with. I love the look of the stock wheels all black now.

Pleased with the way it turned out. If the wheels don't hold up I may just have them powdercoated.

Same here if they don't hold up more than one winter I'll break them down in the spring when I put my BMF's back on & have them powder coated & remounted & they'll be ready for next winter.

I had plasti-dipped wheels for about 2 years. Looks great and lasts. Did 5 coats one time, and touched up one time in 2 years. Just got some method's finally, but the black looks so much better than the stock rims. Enjoy!
