White, white, white. If you look at your photos, the black wheels almost like you have no wheels at all. Looks like the car is on blocks and your car has been vandalized.
On the other hand, if you plan to track the car, the black looks much more intimidating. BTY, I think white will turn more heads.

WHAT????? How can the Track car look intimidating if it looks like it is sitting on BLOCKS with no wheels and just been vandalized?

Black is out, how can you even consider white?

I think I would get tired of the all white look and trying to keep the white wheels looking good all the time may be a chore.
I would go with a polished/chrome or machine faced wheel if it were my car.

I've had white wheels before. Dust them off regularly with a California car duster and you won't have a problem.

ddman...as a proud owner of a triple white 1988 35th anniversary model, I have to vote for the white rims. However, a bottle of Sonax wheel cleaner will become a favorite for you to have in your wash bucket.

Holy cow, these "articles" are BAD. Just terrible. Who do I have to talk to about the just poor quality? Seriously not one person should be proud of those "front page articles."
I'd be embarrassed and wouldn't post them in threads at all.
