    Best color for stock weaves?

    What color would look good on my 14 basketweaves?
    I have a late model CirrisBlau coupe

    I'm thinking bronze... or white...

            14" are too small for darker centers. all you'll notice are the giant sidewalls of a 195/65-14 all-season (since high performance tires almost don't exist in that size anymore). :(

            silver, for sure.

                          How about polished lips, and gold. Not biling gold but a mellow bright gold. Kinda like this.



                          I am thinking of doing my stock 15s like that.

                            stock weaves are too small to pull of anything multi-colored.
                            oem silver or oem gold on some cars.

                              I don't know about that. The Enkei 92s look fantastic with the spokes painted gold, and the lips polished out. I'd like a set of 92s to add to my already too large collection of race wheels for the Datsun. (Panasports, Hayashi Command 500s, American Racing Libres so far.) I've seen Alfa's run the Enkeis in gold with polished lips and again they look great.

                              I would stay away from black. Black wheels don't show brake dust, but they also tend to disappear under the car in photographs. Silver however shows great.
