How about gold wheels?
Re: How about gold wheels?
Gold wheels are very 1970s. Like the honeycombs on the Pontiac Trans Am, or the mags on a Cosworth Vega.
On a white car it looks too Lexus-like.
There are better flavours of rice if you wanna go dere.

Schott Axiom might be the way to go if you want to stay true to the vehicle designer's intent.
Better design and they'll size and paint the wheels to your specs.
I've never liked painted versions of the OEM wheel. Always comes out looking cheap and nasty.

Ya might be able to pull it off on a black car as long as you add some stripes. (Along the lines of a "Hertz" Shelby Mustang). But even that car had Chrome Magnum 500's.
You may not realize it, but you're actually continuing a tradition that "Chrysler" started over 50 years ago.
