Id prefer the bronze if i had DB. But maybe the white with no red stripe? And the 18 front/ 19 rear would be sick i think.

Pix when you take the plunge!

white, bronze and dark gunmetal are the only color wheels I like on blue. black works too, but it is hidden too well in most situations.

If you can think of it - it has been done. White will work on a weekend driver. For a daily driver white is next to impossible to keep clean

Get bronze or black.

Good advice right here.

And no red stripe if it is a weekend car, it'll be too much going on, you could maybe get the stripe matched to the color of the car? it may be cheesy, or it may look good, who knows, just an idea.

I have glossy black CR Kais and they suck @ getting cleaned up. That type of bronze is pretty sweet though.

Definitely no red strip around the wheel. That being said, all taken into consideration, I'd go with bronze or a gunmetal if it was me.

get the white rims in 19's! Just cover the red pin strip with a blue one or call them and tell them not to put it on. So what if its gonna be hard to keep clean? Upgrade to a better quality of brake pads. Your car would look dope if you went wit em'

I like them both bronze looks a little better, but i think white wheels arnt as common well at least in Arizona their not...but will the 18x8 front and 19x10 make the handling worse (almost like a drag car).19x8.5 front?

boomer did you paint the lugnuts your self?
