No plasti on wheels unless you use the specific one made for wheels.

Also would recommend the Black powder coat

I think I see where this advice is going so I'll chime in on my train of thought:

- Yes the car is very clean and only a few chips here and there.
- Yes it is stock and I do not like to lower or get big wheels.
- Painting my wheels a different colour will probably not look good so I will leave them.
- I want to plasti-dip my car a gloss black (yes It can look good I have seen gloss black dipped cars).
- This is mainly for two purposes:
1. to Protect the paint underneath (and I will still use a clear bra in places...under the dip)
2. to change the colour of the car without paying $5,000-$10,000 for a paint job
- I can afford plasti-dipping but not painting or wrapping.
- I don't want to do stuff just to do stuff, I want my car black, and the paint protected.
- Plasti dipping will be done by a professional shop authorized by dipyourcar.com

Thank you all for chiming in with your input I love this forum!
