I did something similar with my track wheels

One thing to note, you have to get them balanced before you coat the barrals as I would not think that weights would be very secure on Plasti-dip.

I ended up removing the coating on the barrel as I it became PITA to recoat them every time I change tires or get the flipped on the wheels

I had them balanced before I coated them because I figured if the shop had a chance to F@#$ up the finish, they would.
