look at Spence's ride. Still wish he would take off the red emblems though.

Heck, try black face with white rim. I could picture it in my head and I don't like what I see, but maybe you can make it work.

Do we have any good PS ppl in here that could make an example of these different wheels?
i personally think it's either gonna be so sick, or just gonna remind me of oreos either or, can't really decide which right now

...and you already know my opinion on the whole white stock 5 spoke wheels on a white cl.
i think i've been telling you that since you joined here.
Goodluck on the decision

and honestly. im gonna throw a curve ball and i hope you consider.

black with white lip: i thought about it before i went white, and it could be pulled off. but definately not with those wheels.

White wheels: looks great with white. but unfortunately those wheels are not meant to be white.

heres what i suggest. both white or black would look eiher goofy, or ricey. but i think if you did them this gunmetal color, they would look super clean with a clean brake setup

thats where our opinions vary. i suggested gunmetal because like everyone says black is played out. i agree, but it can look good if done right.
unfortunately not many people do it right. if you go darker, its just gonna give you the steelie look, especially with a white car.

when i suggested gunmetal, i wanted to add something but i didnt know how to word it. but if anything, i would go lighter, almost like a dark grey. it allows for people to see that you arent rollin on steelies, and it still gives the that black does.

can someone second me, that integra gunmetal looks so much better than just all black

you got any pics for examples...like off a vendor site? that might help people recommend something.

both styles are played out IMO. but then I have pretty generic rims..wheels aren't everything for me.

my opinion goes like this:

if it has a polished lip, black or gunmetal, i cant tell the difference between the two.

but if your painting the entire wheel: black= too dark
gunmetal or graphite= So clean
and you can really notice the difference between the two if you do the whole wheel.
