14's are even cheaper.

Always darker colours over lighter colours.

Yep, thats what I got as well for my 15" pontiac rims, but from the states & it was only $9.50 US.
Postage could determine where you get it from though, but all up it cost me less than 20 bucks which was better than the $50 a local guy here is charging!

Have a look at this listing though, as in the pics he shows how he paints them:
