Looks good, if you decide to keep them white, I'd suggest seeing what they would
look like minus the centercaps.

Otherwise repaint them like a gunmetal/dark grey. IMO

Some cars around the time period of that car were sold with white wheels, so it kinda works with the styling. It goes very well with the car IMHO.
