Default Blacked out my rings on my Mickey Thompson Classic Locks

Sprayed Plasti dip today on my rings of my classic lock rims.

These are the results.

Trying to decide if I should just leave as is now or if I should paint the entire wheels black..

Thats what I love about the plasti dip trial run.. If I change my mind just peel off and start over.

Do you think it would work on center caps? I've been meaning to paint mine for awhile.

Looks great with just the black rings. Polished/chrome wheels look great on a black jeep. (Just no other chrome!)

Post pics if you do plasti dip your rims too. I have the same rims but painted my beadlock yellow and thinking about doing my rims black... Steeler look.
And that way I can always peel off the black if I want the silver back.
It looks good bro!!

yeah it should work fine.. Ive used plasti dip on various types of materials..

Thanks for the positive feedback!

Im def digging this look over the all polished.

Rusty- you are right almost too many black wheels out there but thats brcause black wheels look so good. Especially black on black.

Ill see how im feeling after I add my black light bar that im ordering on monday..

jeep modding is addictive and I love it

Thanks Rob

I will post pics when I black out at least one side and see how I feel about it.

So I will post pics. Hopefully I can do it early next week.. Ive got a buddy who has a car lift in his garage (freakin sweet) and I can lift the jeep up take the wheels off and do it right. Just sucks waiting for all the spraying and drying stages..

Where can I get matte black lug nuts from?

I've been thinking about that exact setup but I have a silver jeep. I think it looks awesome.
