It holds on wheels perfectly fine. I just like my stock wheels better than black. It made the Nismo look $15,000 cheaper....

Unless you ever drive your car. Your rims will easily exceed 200F

Tons of people do rims with this stuff. You should have no problems. I have yet to hear of temps being a problem on wheels.

It gets 110 degrees plus around here and theres insane humidity and heat index and I drive hard and the plasti dip held up fine on the wheels. I'm pretty sure it can handle more than 200 degrees. I want to say 225.

On track we see rotor temps around 1200F...seeing 600 or so on a windy road is common. The IR gun showed 800f temps on rotors at zdayz. Even with the relatively weak thermocouple, the rims were consistently at 400+ afterwards. It's not much of a stretch to see 300+ on a back road.
