I love white wheels, but they don't suit the colour of your car. Black looks better and grey/anthracite would look even better.

white looks awesome but is a bitch to keep clean, doesn't quite look right with you colour-scheme imo.......

definately go for a darker wheel, maybe time attack look with a coloured pin stripe???

Personally, I don't like black wheels. IMO they make the alloy look smaller.

I much prefer brighter colour wheels. I had 18" ST IVs in white on my Sonic Blue classic.

Suits sonic blue very well.

I can't believe how many people like black wheels! I just don't get it. I mean look at them.....they could be pretty much any style of wheel cuz you can hardly bloody see em! Black wheels remind me of old fiestas etc with the wheeltrims missing. Rubbish. White doesn't really go with ur car tho! Doh

white does not look right with your car,

i have grey/anthracite rims on my silver classic...

it hides the brake dust and they allways look clean
