painting 2005 wheels *pic

Hello every1,
I have '05 Diamond Graphite on the order, but when I saw the wheels on it I was kinda disapointed. So I thought they would better painted darker, especially for DG color of the car.

Or maybe it's not worth messing with them. Maybe I'm better off selling them and getting myself some Volks

What do you guys think?
(here's little PhotoShop I did to show you what I am talking about)

Black or gunmetal rims always look great on a gray car (DG in this instance). But that Willow leather really throws things off, IMO. Some dark tint is a must with the darker rims.

Looks good, I also have a DG on order. I tried to photoshop the same pix to DG so see what it looks like with the wheels stock, but I wasn't very successful. Do you have a photoshopped version of it without painted wheels. How do you just change the color of the car? Thanks
