Default Which rims look better? two chop pics inside

Hey guys I recently restored my rims but I'm deciding if I should keep them white spoke or paint them gold/broze in the spring time.

My friend did two chops for me...lowered my car as it should be and in the 2nd pic he painted my rims gold.

which way does my car look the best...I think with white rims still but I'm not sure about the gold rim look on the car

picture 1:
done in chop: lowered more



picture 2:
done in chop: lowered more, painted rims gold, amber corners



what do you guys think?
#1 or #2?

The white looks good.

The color you used on the other ones is more of a yellow than a bronze, so you arnt getting the right idea from it.

not really feeling either one to be honest, but the first one looks better.

Here is the origional picture of how high it sat when I put on the rims


I didn't feel like lowering my car more since I got it all on in August and I would have to raise it shortly for winter so i'll be dropping it a lot more this upcomming spring.


Anybody have any suggestions on to what lip/paint or other mods I should look into.

I am looking for the amber EG fog lights and I have a backup Si lip at home

thanks

I say wingless, amber corners, and black centers:



Shitty chop, but you get the idea

agree that the rims are way to yellow in your chop. I say go w/black chrome lip if you can. If not, rock the white and some clear corners.

If your going for the 'green for the money and gold for the honey's' look than gold all the way playa
