Default Need opinions, red rims on white car

I'm thinking of purchasing a set of wheels like the esses rims, in that orange/red color. Do you guys think that would look good on my car, it's all white. Pics would help too. Thanks.

rims that are not in the traditional color like white, silver, black, bronze, or gunmetal, are just plain

BUSTED!

just my opinion

I think it would look pretty ghey. Go with the flat black, it looks sweet on a white car. (I'm probably saying that because thats what I have. )

just my opinion
The only traditional color you listed is silver, the rest are colors people thought would look cool. And if you've ever seen red GAB JDM rims you will know they rock, but it all depends on the rims and the color of the car.

And in my opinion black wheels don't look good at all, most of the time it looks like you have no wheels at all, gives it that whole floating look. I think people just think it's cool now b/c the Spoon SW388's are flat black, otherwise no one would have black wheels.

Agreed.

Do what you want, but red rims look pretty damn nice on the right car. Never seen them on a white hatch, only on black ones, sooooo dunno how it would look on yours. But if you like it, who cars what everyone else wants.

i think red wheels look good only on certain color cars...but also depends on the wheel design too.

and i think white wheels on a red car look clean, but red wheels on a white car look kinda funky

I think it would look sweet. I'm thinking of slapping on some red rims on my white CRX or painting my flat black HX's to red...

It was a factory option. But I think that one is converted.
