i think that looks nice with either colour wheel, but the black gets my vote

recently went the other way round black to gold and TBH i don't like the gold look only on because they've got my winter shoes on as i didn't fancy the REO70's in the damp winter!

wash them then heat gun to dry off rubbed them down with fine paper wash off all dust warm up the wheel to dry and help paint primer warm wheel then spray colour you want i got some mat black to help the hard to get spots so no runs warm wheel then clear lacquer up warm wheel
the longer you leave the the paint to go off before putting them back on the better
