I'm looking into spending some bucks on some new wheels. I thought for a while that I'd be satisfied with the stock wheels (which are very nice for stock wheels) but... as my car is reaching its first birthday I figured it deserved some new rollers. Now my question is, do I go with Silver, black with a polished lip, or white. I know the white car with white wheels thing is played out, but for some reason I can't help but like that look. What do you all think? And if you're in an extra special helpful mood if you post a link or a pic to a rim you would suggest along with your color preference that would just be amazing!

Thanks in advance. Oh yeah, and incase you somehow missed the post or don't see my sig, my car is superwhite...

I've been looking at rims too,

www.tirerack.com
got some for the tC, there also a nice thing on there where you could put rims on your car, you can change the color to white and check out the different rims on your white tC to see how they look. They don't have white rims tho.

I'll either go with hyper black with polished lip or gunmetal with polished lip.

But yeah, the black with polished lip does look good... but thats getting rather old also. Tire rack is nice, but it seems that most of their wheels that I like are over $350 a piece... and i'm not sure about spending that much. Any other comments/suggestions?

if my tc was white, i'd have gotten bronze wheels or gold, especially the gold with a polished lip

yeah their expensive but you can use their little picture thing and search for the rims @ a better price.

I don't think the 2nd or 3rd rims will work on the tC. It's a 4 lugger.
Eh, I could be wrong since I don't know much about tires/wheels.

I love gunmetal color wheels on white cars. Here's my choices from whalentire.com. (can you tell I'm an enkei man?) I bought wheels/tires for my honda from them and totally recommend them.

They're available in 5 x 100, the pics are of the 4 lug wheels though.
