If you want to change them up I would sell them and buy a set that are intentionally the color you want them. Otherwise I think you do your current rims a major injustice by painting them.
Just my $.02
Gorgeous car btw!

Your car looks sick bro. Normally I would say go black.. but those wheels looks great as they are. Whichever you decide... you just can't go wrong.

I'm not saying "go black". I like it as it is. But if you do choose to go black (which would look great too imo) I think you should change to shadowline around the windows and also black exhaust tips.
