The monolites use a very light colored metal... with a pin stripe, everest green is so dark it would probably look black from afar, and up close it might look like a pack pf spearmint. I doubt it would work well. And can you even still get monolites?

I think this is a prime time for you to get Forgestars. They make a five-spoke with a lip, and one w/o a lip that has a nice concave look to it. Multiple finishes to choose from, including silver/machined face. That's the route I would take if in a green car... as I said, less is certainly more.

Letterings/stampings on the wheel would be an absolute no-no. But that's my humble opinion...
