I Plasti-dipped my wheels a couple weeks ago and finally got them on the car. I think the wheels themselves look awesome dipped, but not sure if they look good on the car. Thoughts?

They don't look bad dipped but I liked them better before. They popped against the Tungsten IMO

More wheel or moar low. Just my :2cents:

Well me replacement Steeda springs are still pretty new, so it'll settle down a little more. 19's would be ideal, but 18's give me enough sidewall to handle the potholes around here. Plus I like my tires meaty

Yeah kinda what I was thinking. I could pull the dip off the chrome rings and leave the centers dipped

I'm in for the before look also. My opinion, it works better on your color.

I prefer the before. They popped & gave just a bit of contrast with the TG paint. Now they just blend together.

They look good either way in pictures... but I bet they look better in person without the dip.

Because most dip only looks good in pictures :p

I'm just not a big fan of black wheels on TG. I think it looked better before.

This^^^^.......I had black Saleen wagon wheels on my car last year and was a little disappointed. Black looks great with lighter silver or darker gray like Sterling; but it just does not seem to look as good with Tungsten.
