Depends if they've built the wall up enough.
Plus they'd not just squeal they'd barely work.
Do you not remember the Mongoose single speeds where they painted the rims? No braking until the paint melted or chipped off. It killed brake pads and didn't really stop the bike.

And all the cheap MTB whose rims was painted black because it look cool.

They squeal and grind but eventually braking surface start to show.

Bit silly to go through this fuss just to gain that all-black appearance.
