I REALLY don't like most black cars with white wheels. Gunmetal or silver would be cool, but I'd probably go with silver.

I would say silver with a black car. White wheels on black stands out a bit much. Gunmetal would look good too, but then no one could see them. Silver is a good match because they stand out more than gunmetal, so people see your cool rims, but they don't scream as much as white wheels. Just my .02

I think you know what I'm going to say..


but those rims dont look too good in white IMO.. The gunmetals are nice though..

But you know Black and White are made to go together..

Yeah, your car is an example where white rims look really nice on a black car.

i would say about 99% of the cars i have ever seen with white rims i think would look 10x better with a different color wheel. when i sold my silver c5's the guy also had a black prelude, and he painted them white... i swear the car look 10x worse than mine, yet was identical with those wheels

Derek, I had white rims on my old black del sol and I liked it for about a week and got sick of it. They are a pain to keep clean and the color gets old fast. Get gunmetal with a silver lip if you are going for the Mean 6s.

See Im not a big black on black fan.
I don't think it looks that good. Gunmetal
looks good sometimes, but not on a black car
I dunno...maybe I won't order any and I
won't have to deal with anything like this.
