Default stock wheels FTW!

so i put my stock wheels back on yesterday due to the 18s being mistaken for drag slicks.. (even the fronts).. and i have to say that the difference in weight really makes a difference in acceleration, maybe its just me but it seems like it gets up to speed alot quicker and with less effort now.. so thats brings me to think, maybe i should just paint my stocks black to match the color scheme and sport them for awhile.. anyone got pics of what the stock wheels look like in black?

There are more than one stock rim though. You've actually not got the most basic ones.

Most wheels cost 130-200 each and sacrifice weight over price. When I put 20s on my truck it lost 2MPGs.
