Got to depend on the colour of your motor.

Mines 555blue so gold looks fine, a mates' green with silver, looks ok but IMHO gold would be better. The debate rumbles on.....

Got gold on white - sets the intent of the car off nicely IMHO. Not for the faint hearted though - cops seem to be attracted by them too
I'd better keep my International Driving Permit to hand then

I'd prefer gold wheels on a blue car but as mines flame red, the gold really wouldn't suit it. I've got silver at the mo, but quite like the idea of white, ust couldn't put up with the hassle of cleaning them.

As stated by a few people, it depends on the colour of the car.
White with gold is better than white with anthracite or silver, white with white could take some getting use to but gold still looks better....
Blue suits anthracite and gold, not silver.
Black looks good with gold.
Silver looks good with silver or anthracite, not gold.
Green looks good with gold and silver, anthrcite is a little too dark IMHO but can still look reasonable depending on the alloys.
Red suits gold, silver and anthracite (depends on which red though)

Hmmm i think i may have got all the colours there please add if i havnt

Tony

PS its also down to peoples tastes

You didn't say what else white wheels go with. Got to be red.

Anthracite is the best choice!

OZ Anthracites on my DBM UK Turbo - nearly everyone one and their dog has gold

They stand out more I found after painting the calipers red!!
