Looks really sharp! How often do you guys find yourselves re-spraying wheels because its peeling off? Thinking of doing it but worried at how it may chip a lot

Never had to yet even after some burnouts and high speeds rocks just bounce right off the wheels not even the smallest chip. If you do order some dip I would order the repair kit too just in case. So you only have to respray that one small area. Watch the tutorial on YouTube it's real simple.

How many cans did it take for all four wheels, and how long is the dry time before they're road ready?

I know people that go 1-2 years. you don't really respray too much, you just touch up by spraying a certain area that is worn, and after 6-12 months you peel the whole thing and do it again if you want. But you can go up to 3 years.

It took me 1 can for every 2 rims. Light on the first and second coat. Then heavier coats on the next 4. Just be careful on the heavier coats because it will run easily. I just laid the rims flat to spray them. I did 6 coats. The more coats you put on the more durable it will be. Tape of the valve stem and mask the tires.

To be safe I'd buy 3 or 4 cans. Whatever is left over do your emblems or something or save it if you ever need a respray.
