don't think I would have painted them... if anything maybe painted them white if they are going on a white car.

Black wheels just disappear, you don't see the detail of the wheel anymore

finally...i thought I was the only person that thought black wheels make you look like you have steelies. I just don't understand that trend.

If you color sand and clear the black, it will be shiny, avoiding the "steelie" look.

I would put a set of those on my vert, if they were as light as my BBS rims (which I doubt)
