Default White Rims of Red Nismo

Just seeing what you guys think about this. I have always like colored rims on cars and was just curious what the Z community thinks about white rims on our Nismo. Maybe even the stock rays painted white. Let me know what you think!

Someone on here has done it, they have a red slammed one with powdercoated white stock wheels.

I think white wheels looks tacky and I couldn't imagine the maintenance to keep them looking good.

Maintenance would been rough! I think it pops though. Like a white car with red or various colored rims. Gives even more character. But your right about the maintenance part.

Cant find it. I found a reg 350z with white time attacks it looks clean. Just not sure with the graphite aero kit we have.

Don't like white rims of any kind.
They remind me of welded steel wheels on
a old Toyota or Datsun pickup.
Just my opinion.
Also,not practical to keep clean.

The Nismo looks good with the white stocks. I love the Tehkmob posted. The look is both menacing and elegant at the same time.

lgear's white wheels on the red is one of my favorite setups to date.
it always keeps the te's as one of my must have wheels.

I have had white rims on a couple previous cars (both blue) and liked the look. The Nismo red would look good with white rims.

I'm the owner of that nismo on the video. If you want some more pics of my car to give you a good idea on how it looks just give me your email address i'll send you some pics. Its a hassle keeping them clean but its by far the best decisions i made on my car. The look never gets old..
