Thanks! 06Dak4.7Silver, I jacked up the front and took off two at a time. I just taped up the treads and sanded the heck out of them. Then I used a self etching primer, then a regular primer, and then the bed liner. Make sure you do something about the bevelled end where the lugs nuts lock into because you don't want any paint on that portion or else they might not lock down as well as they should. I haven't heard much about the plastidip besides it chips off very easy if I'm not mistaken. The best talk I hear is about powder coating. Bed liner was sufficient for me though, and a lot cheaper too.

Oh, and yes they are the 16" stock alloys. Thanks again for the comments! I have since posting this added two fog lifhts on the bar, but I'm going to repaint the roll bar with bed liner just like the rims because it has started flaking.
