if you prep and paint correctly and have a tire shop that isnt retarded, theyll hold up just fine.

ull be good. if u dont fail at life.

everyone says eh dont do it if your not "experienced" with painting or what not. its not that bad if u take your time, be careful, have a lot of time, and do it correctly youll be totally fine.

I thought 1+1=11 lol

Using Duplicolor spray paint is actually pretty easy. You just need to mask off everything you don't want painted. Prep work takes longer and is more important, than the actual painting.
