i think that that might look pretty good maby you should try some of the diffrent colored chrome paint they sell at walmart lol you could spend some $ and get the color changing paint and put alot of clear coat on it the would be cool. i agree those rims dont look good im not a fan of any of the 3 star rims thats what i call them i dont know any other names for them. other than the rims you got a nice stang

I'm not a big fan of your wheels either. I'm gonna say that if you paint them black, they'll just look like steel wheels that the wheelcovers have fallen off of, i.e., crap. See if you can pick up a set of 10-holes or ponies, those would look good on your car.

Don't paint them black! Some guy on my street(court, actually)had a set of wheels a lot like yours. They were painted black, and I'll tell ya, they looked awful!

I do agree that painting them black is not the best option. You can paint them gold but dont forget the dingle balls! LOL I would just replace them when you can. They definalty look better the color they are now.
