    Ive seen others plasti dipp their wheels and instead of applying tape all around the wheel to protect the tire you can stick notecards between the wheel and tire all around. It does the same thing and may be less of a hassle. Just a tip for anyone going to do this

      even better and easier apply tire shine to tires NOT any on rim itself...over spray on tire wont stick and will peel off easy

      Or just use a trash bag . Rip it down the middle and stick it through the spokes and spread it out. Works just as good.

      Oh on the tire the company makes a protection you can spray on the tire and done need all the tape or cards. Peels right off

      My son in-law did this to his Tacoma . They look really good, they are still showing gloss black 2 years later. Mind you that like with any wheel finish, road debris will nick and have some small rock chips on the finish. But it does hold up pretty good.

    It may have nice appearance but realistally its senseless to do all this to wheels being the paint is sprayed on not baked on therefor will chip off & scratch up easy, its better to just save the time & money on can paint to just go buy rims that are the color & style made by some company less headaches all the way round..

      I found after about 6 months it scratches off very easily. Even just going through an automatic car wash it comes off. They now recommend not going through auto carwashes with it so I doubt it would hold up well between tire changes.

    an easier option instead of taping the tire is buy a pack of cue cards from the dollar store and stick the cards into the lip of the wheel, have the cards overlap each other to have complete coverage.
