Default Gold OZ's or White Speedline's...?

I got a pretty good deal on a set of OZ'd this wkend and couldn't resist. Can't quite get used to them... Which do you prefer...? My car is rather high at the moment, because my Tein coilovers are getting re-built so standard WRX shocks & springs in for now...!

OZ's - not sure which model, I just know of them from the WRC 22B using these in tarmac spec.








Photoshoped to the right height:




Speedline Type 2014SC's (RB5 rims):

White on white is a great combo, gold doesn't suit your car for some reason

Thanks for the comments so far. I agree, for some reason the white looks better! doh! It may be bacause of the mud flaps - I'll remove them when I get a chance to see if this changes anything.

I may still keep the OZ's and re-paint them either anthracite or white as I like them too much to sell....

To be honest, I quite like the OZs in gold! White looks good too though, so you win either way!

Gold ones are the classic scooby look, white wheels give your car that 'track' car look IMO for some reason..? Depends which look your going for, nice car either way!

Thanks for all the replies / votes I've decided to leave the OZ's gold for a while to see if I get used to them, if not I'll paint them anthracite so I have a set of black rims for when I'm tired of cleaning the white ones
