Camaro Black RS Replica Rims

I am going to be looking for some black rims and I found some for $155 a pop, has anyone purchased these? If so how were they? Also if anyone has any better options or other rims that are all black, could you please post a link?

Any and all help will be appreciated.

Here is the Replicas that I am interested in buying.

I'd say get them them powder coated, cheaper and they'll look exactly the same. And you'll know they're gm wheels not an off brand

I'd just use plasti-dip. After two years (two camaro's) it's never chipped or anything. 5 dollar mod.

They are out of those rims though, but there are no problems with these? Do they ride the same as the factory ones.
