Poll:Which Rims??

I don't think this will work, but let's see. Photoshopped both sets on. I like the white personally, but like I said, I don't know if the pics will even come up.

I’d say the black. Black always looks meaner.

Black does look much more meaner/aggressive. White goes well with your car color. Coming from a performance/a little show p.o.v. I personally think that whites are more of show than go and black more go than show.Depends which way you wanna go.But, if you go with whites you gotta use colgate extra whitening toothpaste like 24/7 to keep em nice and pretty or else they'll be a sore eye to look at.

The black rims from the picture don't look Black. They look like Bronze to me.

I'll say white ones look a lot better because you can't see Black rims. Black rims look like steelies IMO.

I didn't see the white rims. But I don't really like black rims. I am with EL'ation. Black rims seem like steelies to me. And I have always liked the way white rims looked.

I thought the black ones looked alright, but I really like the white ones. My car finally came back to NoCal. My mom and stepdad went down to LA to pick it up. They drove it home though which pissed me off. It scraped going up my dad's drive because she drove at it straight on instead of at an angle. I really wanted them to tow it home on a U-Haul transport, but they didn't. They were going to take it back to the body shop so they could raise the coilovers too, but they didn't do that either. Fawkin pissed.

Definately go with the white. Looks great with that color of blue. I love my 10 spoke white rims on my black car.

The White looks great but it's definitely too played out nowadays. But hey, man, whatever floats your boat. I'd say black/gunmetal to be different. But white looks tite.

I live about an hour south of LA on the coast and I barely ever see any white rims at all. I barely see any rims at all that aren't crome or silver.
