Has anyone here painted the stock triangular gt alloys?

Hi. I was wondering if anyone here has painted their stock triangular 5 spoke gt alloys to match their car. Was considering painting my wheels to match my car in the spring, but would like to hear your comments and see if anyone has any pics.
 


Triangular 5-spoke?
There is the snow-flake and the torque star available on an 02 GT (guessing by your name and post that is what you own).
Snow-flake is a 3-spoke with smaller spokes in-between and you should just get rid of them. You'd be better off driving on your rotors than on those things.
Torque stars are 5-spoke rims where the spokes sort of curve back.

In either case, painting those to match the car would probably look pretty bad. Imo...
 
Those triangular alloy thingies that they claim only came on the Daytona 500's that you can find on a ****ing Pontiac Aztek? Don't paint em get rid of em.
 
Ok. Thanks for the replies. They are the snowflake wheels. I don't mind the styling of them, but wouldn't mind a set of 5 (star) or 6 spoke alloys.

Just WAY to small for me i would never bother painting then 18 inch moda md6 is what i want they remind me of my bros ls1 rims on his 02 firebird its sucha SWEET car(sorry about pick to lazy to fix)
 
The modas look nice. Relatively inexpensive too. Am thinking of getting a 16 inch wheel though. Will consider a 17 if i can get a good deal on wheels/tires.
 


I'm not a huge fan of OEM Torque Stars. Everyone and their dog has them around here. I want to have some wheels that will help my car look a bit different than the other ones around here. That is why I was wondering about painting the wheels. If i was to get them painted it would be through a bodyshop or a buddy that does autobody work though instead of spray painting them.
