Default What color wheels for my car?

Howdy! I got into a discussion tonight with a friend about wheels for my car. I only have two photos right now (both from my phone) but I was wondering what the consensus is for wheel color for my car. My car is Redfire with silver stripes and I think I could have polished or chrome wheels, but some think I could pull off going with black wheels. I like the idea of black wheels cause they are cheaper but cost really doesn't matter.

What do y'all think I should go with once I decide to buy some new wheels? Currently I have the stock 17" dark grey bullit wheels.

Thanks for the input!

On your car, I would go chrome all the way. They would set it off.

definitely dont do black
itll fvck up your color scheme (redfire/silver)

chrome would probably be best for you situation, since you also have chrome grills

are you going with 18's or 20's? dont go with black it makes your look dirty and cheap. Go with the 20's chrome bullits staggered from american muscle or the ford racing 18" polished wheels.

whatever size it would be sweet to match the stripes . also unless you are chrome crazy remember that chrome is very hard to paint in the event you want to change the color later .

I just got some black wheels but for your car I would say either chrome or some nice looking anthracite wheels. The shelby wheels are really nice.
