I also Plasti-dip'd my wheel's. I just did the flat star part and left the inside and the lip silver. Then I threw some wax on them to give them a little bit of a shine. Cost me $12 total

good good, very good input, im going to have to consider the dirt... maybe clear coat?

It should cover all of your scratches and nicks, its not like spray paint its a lot thicker. When I did mine I did 3 heavy coats and it covered everything.
