I used the black RIT liquid dye.

you're made of retarded.

you can't dye a brake, the metal wont absorb the dye. you can get it anodized, which makes it look kinda like its dyed, but thats different.

It doesn't dye the core...

 

[me1]

The urethane absorbs the dye, which turns it into a different color. Plastic does not absorb dye, therefor the core stays the same color it was before. Metal will not absorb the dye either.

yep true but some times the core does get a little darker if its white and i would now dye wheels a lighter color than it alll ready is it doesnt work good
TIP: CLEAR pro models wheels work GREAT when you dye them
