The wheels look good Keane! How long the plastidip lasts will depend on how good the prep was. I plastidipped the wheels on my Blazer and it looked just as good as the day I sprayed them almost a year later when I sold it. On the other hand a friend of mine sprayed the wheels on his Bronco and they were peeling a week later.

Interesting, my prep was... nothing! besides taping things off i did nothing lol, i think they'll last a while, as long as i dont hit them when i wash the car, just have to be gentle. But i see a couple areas that need a touch up i missed. Otherwise looking good from my ride to school.

I never used any car wash on mine. I just sprayed the mud off them with water. If you do use a wash use something gentle so the color doesn't fade.
