Nope, Yokomo wheels do NOT take well to dying, I doubt even the newer ones do. They're designed to be stiff, & that's it, no other concerns from Yok about flexing(though they've lightened up a bit on that recently) or being able to dye them. As I understand it, the older ones actually totally melt when boiling them....
