I plastidipped my wheels, I like them oem or black, both ways look good. I'm not sure how long they will last, finish does not look like they will last a long time that way. I did 5-6 coats.

well, now you know what they look like in a different finish. you could always powdercoat them if that fails or starts to look bad.

I will like to follow up on my experience with plasti dip. After one month, one of my wheels began to peel off on a spot, and after coming to a decision that the Brembo package wheels look much better in their stock graphite finish, I tried to peel them off like on the videos, and it wasn't that easy only the wheel's rim where easy to peel, on the rest of the wheel I had to use Goof off (liquid) & Turtle wax "label and sticker remover" spray, was an all day work, and still the wheels looks dirty, I will finish them on another day.
Is it worth it?. I will say NO, but at least is an option to let you know if you want something more permanent like a powder coat paint job.
