    Need close up pics!!!
    I'm planning to plasti-dip the rear wing (white) on my Ironman to see how it looks...I migh even try the wheels. Will plasti-dip adhere to the chrome wheels?

    I would be worried about balancing out the wheels if you put that stuff on there?

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    A member here in VA did her wheels a while back.

    You could check with her to see how it's holding up.

    Not even close man... If you dip a wheels, pull it off it weighs next to nothing... I have been using it on my Evo's wheels for over a year and I can verify balance is fine up to 170mph

    BTW I have 18x9.5 Nt03's and 265 tires on my evo and they only weigh 44 lbs each.... So they would be affected by weight more than my VX's 80 lbs setup.
