Default Should I paint my rims black ?

In the process of painting my valve cover and fuel rail cover.... should I do my rims as well?

Painting your rims is going to bemore expensive than painting your fuel rail cover and valve cover, if you want the paint to last, that is.
Personally, I'd just go with a new set of rims.......

I voted yes painting them yourself alot of srt4 guys and gals have done it and turned out great . Cheaper and you feel good you did it yourself. Nice lookin acr love the stripes and you dont see very many painted acr rims . I was going to paint mine acrs bronze but sold it before I got the change. I also had white with a cf hood and trunk and no graphics.
