Default anyone have black wheels on a discovery?

I'd like to see pics of black wheels on a discovery preferably a green discovery. I've been offered an incredible deal on a set of black american racing ar-321 fuel wheels but not sure how the black would work. Someone else is paying for them as I asked her to help me reverse out of a spot and she had me run over a wood burning stove and scuff my right front wheel up badly. The deal I am getting on these is only slightly more $$ than one 18" stock wheel would cost.

thank you but I should have added that I knew about that one. I have 16 inch wheels coming in I'm going to use for off-road use but am going to use 20's on 33" for on-road. Looking at Toyo m/t for both but someone told me they are too expensive and that I should look elsewhere.

A 20" tire is going to be expensive as is any mud tire.
I have like 10 on-line tire shops bookmarked and you can comparison shop.
If you would like them let me know.

Please reply with them or send them in a pm. THANK YOU. The wheels I posted on the tires are for sale but I don't think they'd work. They are made for an expedition (they are the tires/wheels off the expedition from the movie I Am Legend). I've looked into it though and they do make this wheel for a discovery.

since my nice and shiny wheels are now mostly scratched and messed up from off roading i was thinking of painting them kind of a dark gun metal grey color.
