Default color me black

I was thinking about getting an extra set of wheels to put my extra set of tires on. My tires are for 16" rim so the Rubicons won't work, not to mention they are out of my price range.
Anyway, I'm borrowing a picture from rvator's gallery...can someone paint these black in the pic so I have an idea of what they'd look like?

I've seen the Rubi's painted but not the steels.

Thanks

Now be honest with me.....
Does this look gayer than a $3 bill with Richard Simmons on it?

If not, I was thinking of cutting the heads off of some hex bolts and JB welding them on evenly spaced and reusing the silver lug caps.

I'm thinking that will throw off your wheel balance pretty good

I think the JB weld wouldn't hold after the first couple of mud holes anyway!
