$100 is a steal. Everyone talks about painted rims, but I don't care for them. Unless it's flat black with no imperfections I don't mind, but I see so many painted rims look like s***.

There's no way in hell those are 15's. They look decent though, especially for 100 bucks!

Those are 17's if they're anything.

I put 'em on, take a pic, then Photoshop 'em black before you make a decision. Sanding and painting is pretty much permanent except for changing the color or spending a lot of money getting them re-polished.

I don't get the whole 'black wheels' thing either (to each his own though). But then again, I'm probably a lot older than the majority of people here. I'd leave 'em as they are - that looks pretty spiffy. It'll look sharp once they're on for real.
