I've considered painting my turbo twists black several times, but I too, dislike the illusion of "too much tire" from the lack of contrast between wheel and tire. The twists are super easy to clean, which I love.

As far as painting calipers, if your car ever sees track time that simply isnt going to work. I would only ever powder coat brake calipers, problem is that also involves a rebuild as all the seals, etc have to come out (although, on the bright side, depending on your car's age, this could be beneficial as well).

Yellow brakes on black wheels are hot, however.
