Default Painted Stock Wheels

Anyone done this or thought about it?

I've seen plenty of people do it on other cars and it gives the look of stock with added class of custom.

IMO i think its kinda ricer. I've seen many people do it to after market wheels and it turns out looking good, but stock might look funny.

I think you can only pull that off with black wheels on black car.

Yeah, after some "photoshopping" I don't think my idea was that good after all.
