Refinishing the wheels is a bit more involved than spray paint... At best, you need to remove the existing finish, then add your own. Powder coating would be a good choice.

It would be really easy. Just sand them down a little bit, hit them with some primer, a bunch of coats of glossy black, then clear coat. I would do it if I were you, it would be a fun cheap project. I plan on painting my stock wheels black.
