It depends how bad the fading is. You could restore it and make it nice and shiny without painting if it's not completely ruined yet. It just takes some patience and work and you can polish and buff the paint back to life until you can save to have a nice paint job and keep the wheels too
It's crazy what you can achieve with a little elbow grease.
Have a shop detail the car all around in a nice and smooth finish if you cant do it on your own.
I had a matte faded blue color on my trunk on one of previous cars. Makita / porter cable and some 50$ of products made it come to life like it was freshly painted.
