Question Need Feedback!!!

Im going to PC my OEM spokes white. What do you guys think of 06 DB-Z with white oems? People don't like white on blue, but they say black or gunmetal but that's pretty much 80% of the owners of DB's on here. Let me know what you guys think.

It may look good at first, but I think white shows too much dirt and can show damage too easily. But if you take care of them, it may look kinda sweet.

Agree. White is fine but the front wheels will stain easily from brake dust. Once stained, you will never get them white again.

gunmetal would look better IMO, the white will just make you look rice and will get old very quickly.

I agree...gunmetal's the way to go...

check out blue batmobile's pictures of his blue viper / gunmetal wheels in the "Other Vehicles" forum.
