Should I powdercoat my 19's??

Alrighty I can get my rims powdercoated for right around $300 and I was wondering what you guys think! I photoshoped some pictures and got an idea of what it would look like, so tell me your opinion!

Stick with the silver man. In my opinion it just makes the car stick out more and goes good together.

I'm not a fan of black rims either. Stick with silver. When there black they look smaller because you can't see them very well.

Silver/Gunmetal. They look sick like that. Spend that $300 on some performance mods.
