Painting stock WT wheels


Recommended Posts

Posted

Got me a 2015 2500HD Work truck.

 

was going to buy some 33” MT tires with 20” wheels. However the truck got brand new 33” AT tires a couple weeks before I purchased it, so considering running those tires for awhile.

 

so to my question, has anyone painted there 18” work truck wheels and have a picture they can share? I’ve looked all over and can’t find any pics.

 

if I paint them, was going to paint them black, and leave the center cap alone.

 

heres a current pic:

I didn't know WT trim came in a four door.  Have a feeling that they will do away with the regular cabs at some point down the road.

 

any way, if I were you I'd buy plasti dip spray paint.  I've got the 17" aluminum wheels and im going to plasti dip them until I find an aftermarket wheel I like.

It’s the extended cab or what ever Chevy calls it.

 

ive done plasti dip and spray paint before. If I’m taking the wheels and going threw the effort would rather do spray paint honestly.

I agree.  Plasti-dip it then if you change your mind it’s easy to start over.

Your truck looks excellent the way it is and painting the wheels would not serve to enhance the appearance, imo.   If you don't like these wheels, sell them and buy a set of take-offs.  My local dealership has a few 8 lug aluminum wheel sets for sale.  The steel wheels are very popular for winter use and would sell better in original condition.

I've seen that wheel painted black before on a truck, with the cap left silver, but I don't have any pictures.  Looked good though for sure.

I realize this is an old thread AND my wheel is a different style. However it is a painted (powder coated) OEM wheel that could give folks an idea of what it’ll look like.
