I just bought a set of the 20's and was thinking of doing the same thing. Same color Tahoe actually. I like it, looks good and now confirmed it's worth my time.

Beefhouse, I did exactly that. I just got some plastic bags and made sure the calipers and rotors were covered. I didn't bother covering the tires either. This PlastiDip stuff is quite user friendly. It's very hard to get it to run on you. I used their regular flat black which actually gives it a sort of a textured look. Joshin33, Thanks for the compliment. What kind of wheels did you buy? You guys let me know if you want some close ups of it. In the mean time let me figure out how to subscribe to this thread because I'm not getting any notifications. I also need to order the Chevy Bow Tie decals for my wheels. Haven't decided on the color yet. Was thinking maybe red to compliment the "Z71" badge, but the wife shot that idea down quick!! lol

I'd like some closer photos if you get a chance. I thinking of doing the same on my Tahoe, except in a gunmetal. Thanks!

Here's a closeup so that you can see that it's slightly textured. Hope this helps.

Looks good but IMHO i would get a small "bowtie" decal for the center cap. It breaks it up and right now they look like repro's.

Heres the look of blacked out. My wifes '09
