now that theyre polished, you can actually see how huge those lips are. black tends to hide the depth of the wheel. i say if u do paint again, go with a subtle color, maybe a gunmetal or a flat black color, so that polished lip still pops out.

Yeah, I noticed that too, the lips stand out more. I'm doing a test paint on the center cap with graphite color to see how it will look.

IMHO, i dont really like those rims...they look like enlarged sprockets or something...and i would have went with black rims, but thats just me.
im doing black rims on my silver w203, but it took me months and months to finally decide.
