Default opinions wanted on wheels

I realize that the wheels on my car right now look pretty gay, the idea I had in my head didnt quite come out how i wanted.

I cannot afford nice rims, I am gonna paint the stock rims black enamel. Should I leave them bare like that, use the wheelcovers in my sig, or go back to the stock wheelcovers?

Or should I paint the rims a color other than black?

paint them black and put the cap back on either that or you can rock them without the caps.

Look on Craigslist. You can find decent wheels sets under $200 pretty often.

I have been looking on ebay and craigslist, but the rims I can afford all have 5 lugs : / I really shouldnt be buying anything cause i have no job right now and im dipping into my tuition money teehee, but if I find ones i like for a 2 or 3 hundred i'd make an exception, so if anyone sees a great deal near northern NY or VT i'd appreciate if you let me know.

....not meaning to sound like your dad, but your top priority should be school. The wheels can always come later, so if it makes you feel better, paint the steelies black or silver and e done with it.

When I was going to college, I never worried about mods. Your day will come.
