black rims

I purchased black konig hotswaps and maybe im nit picking but it looks like they are going to get scratched to hell when i put them on because every scratch unlike the chrome rims is very noticable. i already got one rim going back and now ive found another scratch on the lip of another one should i send them back?

Get some black paint to do touch-ups on a regular basis, or send them back and get something different.

Did you buy them new? I have the same rims with the chrome inserts for a year now and no scratches on mine. They are cleaned a few times a week when they are on as well. That black paint is pretty durable, more so than I originally thought when I bought them.
