Ok, I'm going against the tide..

I have a black car, and for me, white rims are the only way to go. I have whites.. Its an acquired taste.

But not for a luxury car, example: 3.2 TL-S, I'd use silvers.

Chrome == IMO

I like white wheels on red, blue, and black only. Other colors and I don't think they look good. I think gunmetal has its place, but isn't always the way to go.

I think those wheels look decent, I'd have to see them on the car for final judgement.

well, his lug pattern is 4x100 and yours is 4x114.3 so if it has the universal 4 then it should work if its only got his pattern, then no, it wont work

I like the rims...they're simple and thats what I like. As for the color...I'd say go with silver or gunmetal. I'm not a huge fan of white rims (although I have seen them look good on the occassional car....but some are really )

As for the chrome question...not on a car. I gotta go with the others...chrome only looks good as 20"+ on SUVs (mmm escalde on 22s....it's the "ghetto" comin out in me.)
