    What color should I make my wheels?

    The wheels in question will be Style 5's, no centercaps or Style 32's for sure. Will be staggered, 17x8's front, 17x9's rear. The car color is diamantschwarz on black.

    The wheel color is up for debate. Not sure what I will do. Opinions welcome.

    Thoughts so far are Gold, Forest/Hunter Green, Medium Gray, or just regular plain finish.

    Here is some food for thought:

        Don't paint them black, the weave won't show.
        Either gold or plain.

              i actually like green on black. A lot of drift cars locally do that, and they look amazing. Don't know about daily driving though.

                    if theyre the wheels I think they are, then they look great with the original polished finish.
