Default Stock 06 Rims

I have mad curb rash on my stock wheels thanks to my lil bro. How it got on all 4 rims I don't know, all I know is that it looks tacky and I can't afford rims at the moment. I was wondering if it was possible to sand down the rashes and then spray paint the rims black. I don't know if anyone has done this but will it look even more tacky or should I just save up for like 4 months to get rims?

I have a set of wheels with tires we took off an 08 Z. Maybe 4 miles on the tires. I'll give them to you for $700.00... just another option. Jeff
