that is a tough color to work with - it's very loud and in your face! I would likely stick with silvers, gunmetals, blacks and things in between these three. I am usually not a black wheel guy, but I've seen some GHIG with black wheels that looked amazing.

ya, originally when i bought the car,, i planned on getting matte black rims, until i saw one at the track one day with them and didn't like the look of them. i was thinking a gloss black with the polished lip or something. i really like the hyperblack fr500's but can't seem to find them for the 05-13's

i like those. was looking to go with 18's, but i don't think they'd have the same look as the 20's. never had such a hard time picking out a set of rims before. ugh

The Forgestar Gunmetal CF10's would probably look real good on the GHIG

Stance wheels are on point. If price isn't as much of an issue, I would go with 19" wheels. You will get the look of 20's with a ride that is closer to 18's. After being on 20's for over a year, I want 18's and that's because 19's can be pricey when it comes to tires.

As far as the color and wheel style goes, check out AM and look at the 19" Forgestar F14's, they look the best to me and there is a GHIG with Gunmetal Grey 19's on their customer pictures.

i like the style, but really dont like the price tags on them. im looking more around the lines of $200/rim or less. probably going to end up with something in the 18" category. i spent a lot of money on my '00 GT this year with putting the procharger on, so im kind of on a smaller budget for the '13 mods.

You could be different and get a set of American racing wheels. Look at my sig picture to get an idea of what they look like. They are gray with brushed aluminum "beauty rings".
They would definitely be different and I think they would look cool!
