I've seen plenty of painted EVO rims and they will turn out only as good as the person painting them. Stock rims are made for painting...didn't you know that Sebba, lol.

Black....the only time to go black is if you have a black car or a white car IMO.
So, I guess that leaves the two yellow hues, lol.
I don't really like either yellow hues anymore because they are everywhere out here. On Subies, Evos (yup, painted stock and aftermarket), even Hondas. I just kind of got sick of it, like chrome rims.

Here's a buddy's black EVO with stock rims painted black. They look better in person btw.
