After my wheels were white, I've gotten a lot more compliments driving around. At the same time I'm sure 100x more people are in their cars going "RICEE!!!" lol

Some people will like it, others will not. I thought I would hate it but I didn't... didn't have time to finish it before Fabulous Ford so just rolled with it. Still on the fence though my original plan is still very possible since a local does good powdercoat for cheeeeaaap.

I think the original plan would look gnarly

I love the whole paint set up on the car (black on white) but the rims are just not for me. I think the black on white rims would look great on your car but just a different set of rims. But its your car and it deffinitly stands out from the croud!

I prefer the wheels as they are. Whatever you go with be sure to post some pics of the final design.

Not sure if you've gone through with this yet, but I think I'd at least do a rendering with a white center cap. Also White Calipers would look decent.

That's a really, really tough call between all three options. The current is gorgeous, but so is the white and black renditions. All three are stand outs and are/would be very unique.

I think the all white rims look the best. Makes the whole car flow good and helps make the detail in the rims stand out. The black center seems to hide the detail on the spokes. Just my thoughts though.
