The ricers around here run colored wheels so I say no white. Not a fan of black wheels since in the old days the standard wheels were black and that is what the 'poor' folks ran. Chrome was what the people used that could afford them.

Definitely black. Looks more like a sports car with the black rims.

Doesn't matter. Mirrors are White, Trim is Black. Either work the car is not too black or white with either.

Black on a white car... awesome! Really your preference and taste. You have to love it and live with you choice.

white looks like it is a toy car. More money but even black chrome would look good. I would go chrome before that white toy car look.

I think either option looks okay, but I'm leaning towards the black wheels. I think it would be tough to keep the white wheels looking nice and clean.

I'm a chrome guy but, given your choices, I'd pick black.

White, they look good and not what you see everyday.
