Opinions: 19" Sevas S-Stars or painted OEM 19"s

So I am at a crossroads.

I have an 07 IP Coupe that I am starting to mod. I am at a decision of rims.

I can get a smoking deal on a brand new set of Sevas 19" S-Stars in Gloss black w/ Chrome lip and a nice dish.





OR

Should I just get my OEM wheels painted Black and get the lips polished? I would most likely have to sell my OEM wheels to get the Sevas though. Getting the OEM's painted would be like $350-$400, the Sevas would be like 2k with tires.

Anyone have decent pictures of an IP coupe with the OEM 19's painted this way?

What would you do?

The stock rims don't have a lip to polish. Go with the Sevas.

If you can get me the info soon then I will look into that. The deal on the Sevas is only for this week so I am trying to unload my OEM's first. If I can't unload them this week then I might go the painting route.
