Default Coated black stock rims

I have a 05 rx 330 silver Lexus. I was thinking about painted my stock rims to black . Need some opinions?

Plasti dip is the way to go, don't like it, peel it off.

I really want to see this. The best thing is it is reversible.

I'd powder coat. Do what you prefer. It's your car.

Probably better to plasti-dip first and if it's found that he likes it, then maybe powder coat.

Instead of doing the whole rim, try just the spokes to give a different look. (I know it's not a Lexus but gives an idea)

Black rims and silver RX do not go together.
