Default 17" Dodge Charger/Magnum/Chrys 300 Steelies

I landed a set of some 17" Newer Chrysler 300 wheels and gave them a try on my early 5 lug Dakota, and they fit great!
For those that want a cheap wheel and tire upgrade, this is the trick. I was able to use my stock Dakota center caps with them too.
Now I need to decide on what color to paint them... black, gunmetal, bronze, or silver.

I'd totally rock them but to be honest it just looks like it's riding on four spare tires. Not sure if painting will help but can't hurt.

There's a set of these same wheels on ebay that the seller had made look like 60's rallye rims by adding trim rings and a center hub cover. I'm planning on dressing these wheels up like that.
