What color is your car? And do you have a picture of the wheels?

I like silver wheels on darker colored cars. But I'm kind of old fashioned.

I feel like dark colored rims get washed out on dark cars.

I think black wheels look good on grey cars, but Fakemike is right that they can get a bit washed out. I was actually at the track with a grey GT-R a couple months ago and thought his copper/orange rims looked fantastic! Or if you're not wanting to stand out quite as much more of a bronze color can look good too. Luckily, your car is a pretty neutral color so almost any wheel color can look good!
