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?

because I just bought an exhaust and other things for the car. I don't need 2 sets of wheels really. If I was still living in Boston I would keep both but not in FL. Also, I don't have 2k to just buy rims with. I do but I don't want to spend 2k on wheels If I can sell my OEM's and cut the price of the Sevas then I will do that.
