    I want to plasti dip my wheels. What color would look against the green blue metallic color of the Grand Prix? Im thinking white? I hate the stock wheel (since mine aren't chrome) I have these stock wheels. $(KGrHqJHJEcFCZ,1TQLJBQmqNiwurg~~60_1.jpg Any opinions would be awesome.

    I like the option of no plasti dip and leave them like they're. I don't see the craze about plasti dipping stock wheels and trying to draw more attention to them..save and get something aftermarket when you can afford it and be happy.

    I would suggest against using white. I personally do not think that would look good. I would go with black. But you want to be careful with the plasti dip because once you do one thing your like hey that was way too easy so you start looking for other stuff to plasti dip and then your car looks like this...


    Now looking back I don't really care for it as much as I did. Glad I took it off but at the time it served its purpose. lol.

    There is nothing else I would plasti dip. I just hate the flat wheels. If they were chrome I wouldn't even consider it. Btw here is the color. 16010244.jpg

    I would match the front facia color with the wheels if I were you. That way you dont have too many colors going on at once.

    The plastidip on my wheels are coming off soon as i get my other wheels painted. The coating last about 6 months are starts to come off and get discolored. And you cant use tire or wheel cleaner on it either

    I'm not saying I've never used plastidip before but like bio said you should just buy wheels. plastidip would look really cheap, especially on base wheels, and might draw more negative attention than anything. just my 2 cents.

    Just clean the **** out of the wheels you have inside and out and they will look a thousand times better.

    Dip it. It's removable. That's the beauty of it. Like it keep it if not, peel it off.
