Default Black rims?

I'm trying to get brand new black rims for my car, since the paint has worn off and left it grey in areas.

Do you suggest I just repaint them, for $100 a piece, or buy a new set?

I love my rims but they don't sell them anymore, and I've searched the net and have not been satisfied with any of the rims I've seen to date.

Does anyone know any good, rare, pitch black rims they would suggest for my car?

Thank you!

If your rims are still in good overall shape, $400 worth putting into them if you are happy!

Yeah I suppose you're right.

They are kick *** rims, they're just not very black anymore.

I was probably going to paint the brake calipers white, too.

I completely agree. It's going to cost alot more than $400 for a new set of wheels. Repaint!
