Default New winter rims should I pant them black??

I just got some brand new winter rims and tires. Not real thrilled with the rims cuz there cheap 15's but I was wondering what you guys though about painting them black. I kinda sucked it up doing it myself in photoshop so maybe one of you guys can redo it if you think you can do a better job. Theres the origional and the black ones.

keep 'em silver. the black paint will eventually start peeling and make your rims look lousy.

$55.00 a rim at Discount Tire wraped with some meaty road hugger all seasons at 67.00 a piece not a bad price for the rims though. I think i'll keep'em silver for fear of them peeling like my front bumper is.
