Yes! I died a set blue, because I run baby blue on my paint scheme, but ended up leaving it in too long, and it came out dark blue. Then I decided I could fix them by dying them black, but black only works over white, so they came out dark purple... so I have a set of brand new, very dark purple wheels I will never use.

I died my set twice, and they didn't change in the slightest. (just under boiling)
