Has anyone pulled their wheels on a 2021 or newer Tahoe or similar truck and painted the calipers so they show through the wheels. Of course using heat proff paint. I need some advise please. Thx

I've seen it done successfully on other vehicles, so it should be ok on yours.

I’m sure I’ll catch crap, but I just put caliper covers in red on mine. Much less work, and unless you re looking right into the wheel intently no one would ever know it. From 20 ft away it looks super sharp with little efffort. Can easily be changed if they start looking scrubby too…

Did the same on the last 2 k2’s I’ve owned. Slotted and drilled rotors are even a better look.

Thank you, Can you let me know the brand you bought and how hard to install.

Sorry, I can't. They were installed by an Upfitter that did my entire conversion. I'm sure you could find them on Ebay,etc..
