Thinking about doing this to my wheels as well.

Although, I searched for that car just now on autotrader to look at the pictures and the wheels look like a pretty bad plastidip job.

I have black painted OEM wheels on my IS F. They do a great job of hiding the brake dust from my track pads.

No you're not, personally.. I'm a big fan of lighter colored "retro" style wheel finishes.
I am considering refinishing my GSF wheels in a lighter shade to make them stand out more.

I think blacking out the chrome trim and having dark tint would complete the look. Maybe even those black emblems?
