Stock painted wheels look ghetto fab IMO. If it is track wheel, then yeah maybe, but for everyday wheels it just looks cheap. I know many will argue, so please be my guest

I actually think that a well done paint job can look really nice...but take your time, and don;t skimp on materials!

It might be cheaper then buying new wheels but it looks pretty good I might do it next winter to my winter wheels.
