Default Wheel color combo? Need input!

Looking at getting in on the Intro Wheel Group Purchase going on over at www.pro-touring.com. Wanting to get the Twisted Vista IIs (see below), but will paint them to match the Special Edition (i.e. Bandit) theme of my SE Trans Am. However, I need some input on what looks best on the TVIIs spokes... black & gold or gold only. Thanks for the help.

In my opinion I wouldn't paint them, I think it kind of make the wheel look cheap. My $.02

I hear ya, but silver/chrome rims on a black & gold T/A would just look wrong. Gotta have some gold on there somewhere!

Since you are looking at Intros, what about their ID Luxury line (wheel ID:313) with a gold center. They are a little bit more money, but hey......What else are you going to spend your money on, right????

If you´re going to paint them, do it in black and gold.
I think just gold would look too much bling....
