Default Plasti Dip white??

Hello guys, hope you all been doing good.
Well I got this crazy idea of plastidippin my speedlines white, what do you guys think. Its a 2002 NBM ws6 lowered on vogtland springs.
Here are some pics, Im on my phone right now so I cant upload but will later, can someone photoshop it? I saw a NBM z28 with white wheels and ut looked good.
Any help and opinions appreciated.

someone plastidipped white the centers on some TTIIs. Came out looking good.
also seen a photoshop of white zr1s on a black car. shouldnt be much of a difference. At the end of the day, it peels off anyways no damage to you wheel so why not try it.

Car might look good with white wheels...but not those wheels. The design of the wheel isn't great anyway and painting them white will just make them look more like 15" ricer wheels.

Didn't 30th anniversary camaro's come with white wheels? I don't think I would call them ricer wheels... I say just do it, unless $15 of white plasti-dip is too risky of an investment. lol
