No, this wasn't a DIY job. I bought these wheels from a friend who had them repainted, I think he went to Promaster for the job. Not 100% sure.

Black or dark wheels = low maintenance. I'm on black wheels now and they don't look too bad when coated with a film of brake dust, but look really nice when brightened up by wax or tire black.

You probably have not driven a car with white wheels while using dusty brake pads for racing. I did, for two years. White wheels, despite looking good, are a huge pain in the *$$ to maintain because every little thing makes the finish look dirty. You can say the same with chrome; it's a little more resistant but ultimately it's the same banana. Try as you may, you cannot totally avoid staining of the wheel finish from puddles of brake dust.

If white or shiny chrome "sosyal" wheels are your thing, don't let me stop you. Just be warned that maintaining them probably won't be your cup of tea. I'd really rather just enjoy driving.
