here's my opinion.. the winter is the winter and who really gives a **** what kind of rims are on the car (as long as its not ur expensive setup), its not like its going to look clean for more then 10 seconds and covered in inches and inches of ****ing snow, if you paint your stockers, most people are gonna believe its ur actual main setup and be like WTF WAS HE THINKING, as opposed to the reactions u'd hope to give off "wow, even puts effort on his winter stockers, props to him"... ur choice really just my $0.02

i would've stayed with the stock color if it weren't the chrome that's chipping off.. here's how it looked like b4.. i had bought this from a seller that he had used for winter setup which explains why the chrome was badly chipping and looked like crap..

So just because it is winter he should not give a **** what his car looks like?

It is an improvement over the chrome finish he had for a "winter setup" and last time I checked chrome doesn't do to well in the winter!
