I'm sure you know you COULD use Plasti-dip to try it out or do it temporarily, then just strip it off once you are tired of the look or just want to revert back. It comes in Arctic White matte finish...
Just another option.

Plasti dip could give you and idea X2. But it looks killer the way it sits esp being engineless lol.

The brighter wheel center makes them stand out like wagon wheels. Don't mess with success!

I'll jump on the same train and say leave it alone. Looks killer as is! White would just stand out way to much IMO. We all know wheel/tire combo and stance will make it or break it - in this case I think it would break it.

Same here Tim, you have a great contrast the way it is, plus they match very well. Going with a much more dramatic contrast may eff up the look of the entire painting....Like what Vince said LOL....get that Elco...

I would have to say the car would have to be white for white wheels. Just like your car is grey with grey wheels. The interior alone being white wouldn't be enough to justify or rationalize white wheels to me. Simply put......NOPE!!





(But, at the end of the day, it's your car Tim. Do what makes you happy.)

Looks like I'll be leaving it alone haha...not one person liked it. I still might grab a can of plasti-dip and shoot one wheel, just to see how it looks in person.

I really do love the wheel set up I have now though...they are absolutely killer and I don't see myself buying another set of wheels soon.
