Gold wheels on a white TL

I was thinking about buying these wheels for my 2004 TL, was wondering what you all think? will it be a good look? they will be 19’s. Here is the link: http://www.workwheelsusa.com/product...ry=28&wheel=81
They will be the gold polish. Any input helps. Thanks.

I think they look decent. 19's should look fine, not too big but not too small. I'd go with 18's or 19's. Do you have a pic of your car you can post? If so, someone might be able to chop those wheels on your car to give you an idea of what it would look like.

I was also thinking about getting these wheels in 19’s as well: http://www.demodaconcept.com/maestro.htm
I was thinking about the black with a mirror lip.
Do you have any idea of wheel styles that would look nice? Thanks

The gold looks good. I would ditch the side molding on the TL tho. Just my 2cents.

If i was to spend >$1000 on wheels, it would def be gold colored
Other than that, I can settle on buying cheaper typeS stock wheels
But no one is selling. wtf!

Gold will look great on White or on blue! The first wheel you posted is okay. Make sure to get a 19" rim because a rim will appear much smaller if it has a lip. Rule of thumb is that if it has a lip, it's going to look 1 inch smaller (19" w/ Lip looks like 18" rim).

IMO mesh wheels in gold look great on the TL.

17's in mesh with a lip will look tiny on the TL. Look for 17's or 18's without a lip in mesh or 19's with a lip.

Thank you sir. Def without a lip, maybe or may not be mesh.
I'm really liking a few other kinds of wheels
17x8 et45 are the kind of wheels to get if i go 17's right?
