Painting Stock Rims

[I<3myb18b1]

I got my teggy in march and so far, since i live newark NJ, the only thing ive done was protect my investment putting a steering lock (across & T-style) and a boot. i want to put some work into it but i know rims will draw attention so intsead of buying a set of si's or some blades i think the cheapest solution would be to paint the stock rims (webbies) in black...in my mind it would look nice but i would like some comments or advice or maybe if someone has done that before post some pics please....thanx

thats what she came on but my rear right one has like this white crap on it and it wont come off i thought painting them black with the center symbol left like that maybe silver outter lip and a clear coat/polish so it shines idk wanna fuck them over though and wind up using paint thinner to remove it lol so i wanna see what it looks like before i regret painting them
