White rims on a black car

I think that Z looks pretty clean for having white wheels

I like it.

I don't like the black and (enter dark color here) wheel combo. So played out.
The only darker color I like on black is a bronzish color.

White and black is beautiful. all the other dont like it, because they think its too rice but its not(damn hondas and other slow azz POS cars. they mess up everything). black on black or black with any other dark color is too played out and it doesnt stand out. just make sure your white rims always stay white. once they get dirty then it looks like crap. black with bronze or white rims is the best imo. But do what you wanna do. Its your car and not ours.

This is an example of gunmetal finish rims with a polished lip.

Hey, don't listen to these guys!
Do what you feel is right for the Z.
People have been so close minded when it comes to colors.

I disagree that having white wheels automatically turns something into rice. I think in some cases with an appropriate wheel, a good stance and an overall tasteful execution, white or any color wheel can look good. I think each vehicle should be judged separately based on its own merits and mods. It of course comes down to personal preference. If you like it do it. And if you're worried about what other people think...don't ask for there opinion.

But I still wouldn't agree with the white rims! Honestly..I think the gunmetal would be most prefered. PLUS.. I could see a white car with black rims but not black car/white rims. That equals DISGUST IMO. BUT do what you wanna do..it's your car..I don't make your payments.

you can be different by doing how other people have done "different" or you can be different by doing what you think is different, you may just start something...

I have the black car and have both a black and white set of sport OEM wheels. Black is DD and the white set is for the track. I was going to post a picture but after reading some of the posts on this thread perhaps not? I do like the look of the white wheels with the black car just my humble opinion
