hey whatever you do dont get black or dark rims, they look like crappp, they just look like the hubcaps fell off your wheels, know what im saying? in my opinion silver and maybe white are the only way to go with red, then again thats just my taste

The good thing about having black rims,is that they can make wheels look bigger than what they are,plus if you are lazy you dont have to worry about cleaning them. :D

Black rims look bad in almost any case, most other colors I would also look bad.<P>Whatever you do don't match the color of your rims to the color of your car because it looks extremely tacky and bad. I once saw a Purple Integra with Purple rims, looked really ugly.<P>The only color I would go with other than the standard silver would be white rims.

Ya im not sure what im gonna do. Color matching rims is tacky I agree you dont gotta worry about that :-p Ive been thinking Gunmetal for awhile but I saw a red civic w/ some Gold Volks that looked so sick It got me thinking thats what I might do. A little more different than silver/white

dont get white rims you'll just turn your car into a civic [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img] <P>If you insist on not going with silver i'd go with gunmetal, even though that color can only work with certain rim/rotor/caliper combinations.

My vote is for the gun metal. One day soon the white will be played out and you will want a change. However, the chrome and the gold is . . . G to the H to the E to the T T O that's ghetto! :) <P>one
