I think you should paint it. I remember a thread about PC decreasing the strength of cast wheels.

If you paint it will chip bad. And road salt will probably eat right through it. Some say pc'ing cast is bad, some say it's ok, but don't paint unless you want to keep painting. My Ray's are pc'ed, and they have lasted well over a year now no problem.
