I've dyed the bright yellow Proline's orange before. If you use Scarlett (red) dye and let them soak for literally 2-3 min tops, they come out orange. I've also used Sunset Orange Dye too, and let them soak for a really long time, and they are as orange as the ones I soaked in red for a couple minutes.

However, the downside with anything dyed, is that if the rims get scratched at all, you can almost always see the orig color because the dye doesn't fully penetrate the rim.

Also.. if you use Royal Blue dye over the yellow rims... and let them soak for 2-3 minutes, they'll turn a really cool color of green. But soak them too long and they will start to turn blue. I've dyed many yellow rims primary colors like Red, Blue, Orange, Green, and even Black, just as easy as i have white rims.
