Want to black out my wheels any suggestions?

I want to black out my wheels, am not looking to change them out just want them to be all matt black. I know I could use a cheap fix with a can of spray paint but that's not what I want to do. Would like it to look proffesionally done without burning a hole in my wallet. Any suggestions or tips from your personal experiences ?would be welcome . Thanks in advance.

Goal is to go with the look from pic A to B

In my case the cheapest and most professional looking option was having them powder coated. I paid $250

That's crazy. I had mine done about 8 months ago here in the Detroit area. I had to shop around a bit to find that deal, but even then places here in Michigan were maybe around $400 to $500 on average

https://www.duplicolor.com/product/wheel-coating/ This stuff is amazing. I did my wife's Nissan Murano. You must take the wheels off the car and take your time to prep them, but this stuff is durable, comes in Matt or Gloss black with a clear coat.

Yep, i did mine and it looks great. You can just go buy the cans at walmart if you already have cleaning chemicals though.
