I think stock rims look funny painted. See if you can just get it repaired.

I'm a huge fan of the Duplicolor wheel paint. If you're painting stock rims on a black car, perhaps the bronze or white would be a good option. Black would be good if you're willing to spend the time applying tons of clearcoat. Gunmetal would be an obvious choice but personally if there isn't a polished lip the rim kind of looks smaller to me when painted in gunmetal/graphite.
