Question about painting wheels
I'm planning on doing up my wheels in black plasti dip this week. I have personally never taken my wheels off before so my question is: does that little factory ford logo in the center of the wheel just pop out or what?

yes, once you have the wheel off you can pop it off from the inside of the wheel; just be careful because the prongs are sensitive and can snap off. I had to get two new ones cause i stepped on one center cap, and the other just broke after balancing my wheels, etc etc..
make sure you have a torque wrench to put your wheels back on- and tighten them to 85ft lbs.
Give your wheels enough coats of plastidip. Problem about my plastidip on my wheels is it attracts dirt so its sorta difficult to keep them a solid black color. Im eventually gonna get mine powdercoated.
Good luck!
