A good thing to use to "test" to make sure you'll like them before getting them professionally painted, or putting a lot of time/work into painting them, is to use Plasti-Dip. After you have decided if you liked it, or hated it, you can simply peel it off, or douse it in some degreaser and power wash it off.

if you do it right the plasti dip stays on for a while I painted mine about 6 months ago and there's nothing wrong with them so far!

You can buy Plasti Dip at pretty much any hardware store in the US. Just as a tip from someone who's messed up with it enough..Let it dry for a LONG time. It will dry relatively quick but give it time to actually harden. If you don't it will just peel off with any little chip or something and it'll get wrecked.

any major hardware store and online, its between 6 and 7 bucks a can and I used a bit under a can a tire. Make sure the rims are clean before starting and try to tape off the tire with some note cards to stop overspray. Another tip is make sure you do light coats don't go for full coverage right off the bat or else it will glob and it wont come out good.
