Man what a great idea, did you try this before you actually painted the wheels?
Just wondering if the peeling off will actually work, in theory it's a plan but you know sometimes things don't always work out.
I so plan on doing this method now..

awesome ideas everyone! keep them coming! 
you and me both, steven.
thanks josh! appreciate the kind words.
post up that INSTAGRAM!
holding up perfectly.
yes i tested the method out on a spare wheel i had. the plasti dip pulls off in sheets...kind'of like when you get a sunburn and your skin peels.
also, for any stubborn areas...a mix of WD-40 and pressue washer will take this stuff right off.

Well, probably 4 cans of plastidip worth dispersed over 4 rims and minus the can itself. Ounces, we're talking here...go for it...
If you're that dedicated...shoot, sand the finish off the rims and run lightweight lugs and only put 2 of them on!
Y'all dieters are NUTS, that's why i haven't decided to start. Cause I'm already NUTS...so if I did it, I'd probably be driving around without a steering wheel...and get a haircut every 2 days...no underwear...remove some of my teeth. Make sure to pee/poop and skeet before driving. It is a neverending sickness!

too much weight? Painting wheels...
Not the fact we have 19s and can weigh maybe a pound or 2 more then stock even being light weight or the fact that some of us added a box and sub (audio) that weighs 25-50+ lbs... IS THIS BAD? and should not be done?
I am sure we all can go back and forward with this issue, like Politics & Religion...lol! I don't mean to open a can of worms here

^^^depends...if you're a dieter, then NO...we're all going in the wrong direction. Which is why I can't be one...all or nothing...I like my bass and rims.
I personally got or was always attracted to the TL for its styling and comforts of sport and luxury. Not to hollow it out.
damn, didnt think people would take me serious...
Sharkes, once I get my MS3 and come on down, might do a side trip to get the wifes MDX done, i been promising her to get it detailed for about 3 years now
