Good job my dude seeing this video made me go out and get some for my 28s ...got em on smash now.You keep doing your thing

[@tinoarmenta1294]

Nice setup on that tahoe man 👍🏼 clean

[@snkrdon9845]

Beautiful ride I have a 96 limited edition jet black 2 door Tahoe on 28" u2's same ones as yours. I might just do what you did to my rims considering my Tahoe is black. Mad love to any Tahoe lovers out there you definitely got the right idea congrats my friend congrats.

[@demetriusstump8654]

That turned out really good! Loved the front end! Made the headlights really stand out! Awesome job!

[@williamcrider6303]

"Plasti dip" best thing since sliced bread brother..did my rims, door handles, wiper arms and other misc parts. looks good, water beads up and easy to touch up. fyi..just make sure you layer it on the thick side or it wont peel off in sheets.

[@rootofthevineurbangardens1823]

Its hard finding some black rim for my wife’s truck... so ima buy chrome and plasti dipping them black

[@JKuhnss]

I love the new look Steve. I plastidipped the grill and rims on my car as well and loved it ever since. Such a great product

[@MACDADDY1089]

How many cans did you use for the Rims?

[@rakhu1963]

I would love to put 26" rims on my Chevy Suburban, but I live in the land of the potholes.

[@MRBurns-ti9lb]

Memphis lol?

[@masteraheyom6677]

Milwaukee?

[@TrinaSafiya]

Rakhu Rakhu anywhere in Kentucky?

[@meade916]

so do i. Just gotta be careful. lol

[@13mrsleyva]

Mexico

[@claysonwebster1622]

looks real sweet murdered out Chevy

[@SlightlyCracked15]

Yes! Finally you use it! Been using the dip for a good year now. Love it :)

[@ZJESemler]

You just started my new spring customization fling...I thought this stuff was too good to be true till I watched your vids! And I like chrome lips..adds class! Some people don't know how to be original and be appreciate

[@JaimeGarciaisnumberone]

tight! 👌👍✌ now you just need to get the smoked out headlights. 👍

[@meade916]

+Jaime Garcia no i don't. Seems silly to me. I like my lights brighter not dimmer. But thanks.

[@michaelsordyl7454]

Nice car nice setup but Burgandy doesnt do it justice.

[@meade916]

where do you see "Burgandy"?

[@718hudson]

This dude needs his own show on a major network

[@baaudio622]

ahh i was wondering about the grill when we were there Friday night. Thanks again for the hospitality Steve!! You are a great guy and not many would open their doors to 20+ guys, half of which youve never met. Very cool indeed.

[@whosyodaddy763]

i love it... if u eva wanna be nice an give it away I'll take it ✋

[@philipraats4167]

something tells me you ain't my daddy

[@jordiiin2268]

cleanest tahoe in the world.

[@meade916]

took less then 3. Thanks for watching the vids and subbing bro i appreciate that!!! Shot out from California bro !

[@riktawheels]

Dude, that is one of cleanest looking Chevys out there. I have a 2003 single cab Silverado lowered on 22" chrome wheels and I was thinking about plasti-dip but I'm definitely doing it now. Awesome video man. Dope ass SUV too!!

[@cali_life_style9522]

Sick as Fuck!!!

[@bigcountry130]

Laid it on too thick for the first coat man.

[@meade916]

no i didn't

[@GhostApollyon]

big country you do realize this video is from 2013 and it's still on his rims.. hate know it alls.

[@rock962000]

Nah. Looks like he did a 50% coat like you're supposed to from what I saw.

[@97336cf]

Sorry, usually I just admire from afar, but I had to say something. That is the nicest freaking tahoe I think I've ever seen. Seriously, I love it

[@meade916]

97336cf thanks a lot!

[@tobirascovez2805]

I really love the look of the dark rims with the whole lowered SUV. We have similar taste. :)

[@wtf6481]

Has thousands of dollars of rims and sprays them with liquid rubber, seems legit.

[@Oats665]

meade916 thats pretty funny. 💯

[@meade916]

it's very legit. YEARS later, it's still on there. I love making people like you look stupid thanks for helping me. haha

[@meade916]

actually, it was pretty retarded.

[@mattinmo]

meade916 I was just re-watching thinking about doing it to my wheels and I was wondering if you’ve ever touch it up...chea

[@meade916]

nope never. It's still there.

[@meade916]

+Charles Satterthwaite comes in here UNPROVOKED, runs his mouth like a little BITCH and then blocks me. Typical.

[@memguillen2323]

Is it the Tahoe air suspension or Lowering Kit ?

[@jojopelletier9105]

just now seeing this..great look,love it...gonna try it on my Saleen wheels..using all my data watching your stuff Steve,keep it going bro :)

[@JeezyND903]

Man I thought your truck was sick before, but that just took it to another level. Especially the the grill.

[@rephouse86]

Thanks for the video! Have had 6 cans of black in my garage for a few months debating whether to use it

[@Kamai08]

All of these people commenting about what you should change on YOUR car. It's his car. I like the new look. Keep doing what you do meade.

[@kevinthomas2906]

Very nice truck. you took your ride, your money, your time and your effort to come out on top. I wish i had kept my tahoe for this reason. GREAT WORK my man.

[@meade916]

+harold lhedigbo thanks!!

[@d3athw1sh51]

Nice job on the dip. This was the first video I saw of someone using it so I tried it out and worked pretty well.

[@SneakerHeadInTheBay]

My man Steve. Keep doing your thing! Reppin Cali all day from the bay! Looks dope man!

[@oXelienanXo]

That's the most original come back I've ever seen. Good job!

[@cabarden1]

Been thinking about doing my rims for a while but the weather sucks now soon as does I'm doing it. It made a big difference for your rims

[@adamwoltz2228]

still watching these at 05.18. I like the tattoos also.

[@WeAreTwoDoorsDown]

Definitely did the right thing. I never really liked the chrome rims, and I always thought they would look great in black. Definitely looking nice now, Steve.

[@meade916]

hell ya bro that's why i did it....i been wanting to powder coat these for a while. For $18 bucks, i get to see what it looks like AND keep it for a long time :D

[@JBLshelton]

Ohhh man! That's flat out sharp! I've always thought your truck would look good with some black and a chrome lip. That grill too! Loving it.

[@drunkinmunkey26]

My brother just got his plati dip in today for his rims crazy how u make a video also. Its a solid product. Your tahoe turned out nice just when I thought it couldnt get better you pull this out ur back pocket.

[@michaelgarcia1623]

Awesome video bro. Your Chevy, super nice with what you did. My respects to you 👍🏽

[@meade916]

yup i believe so - they have tons of colors :D

[@flopmedia]

Looks amazing! Me and my friends love this stuff. One warning about plasti dip, dont ever paint or clear coat over it. I did that with the intention of having a removable gloss finish but it made it almost impossible to remove.

[@Mustafadroid]

Looks really nice bro....I have a 1997 GMC Yukon n am going tk try the plastics dip 2

[@joselito1186]

Great job mead, love how that truck looks after those little mods.

[@JoseRojasMojadORojaS]

Beautiful.. I love the way your Tahoe looks.. Clean and its taking care nice.!!!

[@kittymeowbarkify]

that truck just keeps on looking better and better. good work. i love what you're doing. keep it up!

[@meade916]

when it comes down to it she is a 12yr old car so i gotta do little things to keep her looking good :D thanks man i appreciate it!

[@2logical]

This plastidip technique is getting more and more popular. I may have to try it on my rims.....

[@Carlojonj]

Wow dude I’m doing my Silverado grille after watching this awesome work

[@EmbraceTheBass420]

I like how u left the inner rim chrome looks better than the full chrome, makes your paint job look a lot sharper

[@adavis8423]

had this done on my cadi for about two years man it works great!! comes off easy too

[@daleschmidt7157]

I like chromed rimmed wheels with black inserts. After seeing how yours came out, I think I will do my five spoked aluminum wheels.

[@bluejoulez]

Good lord that looks sick man. The grill looks really badass.

[@darrenw.taylor2084]

That turned out really good! Thanks for sharing this man!

[@comgeturs]

Looks way better! I've been considering plastidip for awhile. It seems to be great stuff! They also have metalizer and glossifer too if you get tired of the flat look.

[@meade916]

depends on what you need. Wussup?

[@terrymcfarland9649]

not one video u made that I haven't liked seeing I love the box builds and everything man. I wanna see ur shop and see ur system in person so bad. my favorite videos is the bad system Cheval I love how u made it all ND did it so much better

[@EstebanLopez-by3ys]

I love how people either delete shit or change their shit. But love what you do it has inspired me to start building my 68' buick with a killer system. thanks -Esteban

[@meade916]

Pirelli P Zero 295/25/26 - they ride like a dream. So soft. Believe it or not.

[@kb3yourmom912]

hey man what brakes do you have on your Tahoe and that looks really good and I'm doing this to my Silverado also thanks for the vid

[@FadyAbdulsattar]

you got a nice Tahoe dude. it's all perfect

[@carmencolumbusohio]

I usually dont like anything wrapped/dipped in plastic but it looks great. Well done!

[@UFOGHOSTHUNTER]

About how many coats did you end up spraying?

[@PrincessVictoria420]

that looks like a sweet ride you got there :)

[@IdaPappy1]

Love the truck! perfect ride height, clean all around and I love the flushed bumpers.. dope!

[@mars1624]

That looks so nice. Great job Steve

[@meade916]

well this "fisheye" camera can be normal with a change of one setting in the menu. I prefer it though myself. I like the super wide angle.

[@saucychurch23]

soo glad you're a fan of plastidip! the truck looks sick!

[@BigALdeek]

looks legit came out dope....I plasti dipped my entire rim black should of left the chrome lip also....my rides white now I'm debating going white on the insert and leaving the chrome lip or going black and leaving the lip.... But yeah comes off super easy I did this last year ....good job on all the help get them dudes some cold ones lol

[@61jdm]

NICE dude i like how it looks now it has more of a raw look to it good work man

[@Huskyman113]

looks good, I dipped my wheels black 6 months ago and still running strong. It has started peeling a tiny bit but not to bad. plastidip is tha shiit

[@meade916]

nope no regrets. So far so good!

[@BionicKris]

Looks good on those wheels. I thought about doing the centers of my rims, leaving the lip exposed as you did. The Plasti-Dip is an inexpensive way to change up your look. If you don't like it, peel it off. Can't beat that!

[@leonelhernandez1975]

What drop you have on it, I wanna drop my Tahoe on 26s but don't want any rubbing issues

[@Lonnie91a]

Grill looks awesome! That plastidip is cool how it works.

[@sk6mix]

Wow, that stuff is really cool. I didn't know about this until now. Thanks man, I may try some of this out on my vehicle sometime.....later

[@chunkyascharged]

Come out dope bro! Loved that last shot too...just ROLLIN!!

[@truewilliams7118]

thinking about doing this to my little factory wheels; great job and these look great on the whip!

[@meade916]

try it! it's a great way to see if you like it without being permanent. :)

[@tommyallapowa3284]

grill came out sweet. I gotta try this out

[@djdanger1969]

I like it, can't lie, you had me scared with the video title, I was thinking, I hope he is not going to spray the WHOLE wheel, like everyone seems to be doing! Looks great killa !!!!!!

[@MazdaBass971]

Wow it matches really good! Looks very nice!

[@TheBundini]

How did the plasti dip hold up? Whats the longevity on a job like this??

[@GhostApollyon]

Scumbag Steve it's still on there from 2013

[@DavidLopez-oq6ye]

I thought I wasn't gonna like it but wow did it come out nice. great job!

[@RYEW3738]

That's clean Meade, when you were spraying them I was thinking, i don't think it'll look right,but once you put the wheels on truck it looked a lot better.

[@magic8ball88]

I really want to put some black on my Yukon. Its white right now and I don't want to pay thousands of dollars to paint the entire car. I'm glad that you painted your grill because I was curious how that would look on my car! Thanks for the video!

[@guisseppebm]

Im planning on doing 4 coats of flat black and 4 coats of metalic gold clear. Maybe running the blade after coat 7 dries then after applying coat 8 waiting 5 min and remove the tape with out running the blade. What do u think if this process?

[@sirhc0306]

I did the same thing to my rims, grill, and bumpers. Did it about 6 months ago and still looks new as the day I did it.

[@DwDrummer-fu9ek]

Would like to do this to my 24" U2-55's this week, how long did it take you tape/dip them? Trying to see how much time I need to allow:) Thanks man!

[@rcastro1105rc]

is there any way to plastic dip your lights and it not be stained when you turn on the lights

[@DeeWadeSoundz]

ive herd alittle bout dis plastic dip . hell i needto try some of it on my wheels .. thanks steve

[@iblacksunday]

These look awesome. I'm not huge into rims, but I really do like Matte Black. Anything matte black looks dope on a car. Never seen Plasti-Dip anywhere around here. About to look for it!

[@dnich95]

I've been looking for something like this. Looks good man.

[@meade916]

ya bro i agree. But the flat black looks good too. :D

[@jblackstone80]

That looks bad ass! diggin' the black wheels and grill!

[@EDDYKREATIONZ]

those rims look badass in black!..i have a dark grey tahoe on black 22's, blacked out lights & it looks sick

[@MrSkolda]

That looked so much better then before, good job :)

[@josesancho4032]

CLEANN!👍🏼 did you re-gear the differential?? What ratio did you go with?

[@TheFixd]

The flat black was a great accent for the color of the vehicle, came out looking damn good.

[@tts60r]

Never was a huge fan of the chrome but this looks great especially with the front grill done too.
