I would keep them original, with a new layer of paint. That way they stick out more.
Thats my opinion

On my bbs i did black centers and red rims. Would really suit a red tech2! Would be harder with alpinas bout could give a nice look. The 17" ones are quite common so no purisist will attack you if you decide to do something with them!
