Default time to change color?

Hey All,

Well on the way home today, every fixed up car I saw where rolling on black wheels. So now I am thinking maybe its time to change the color of my wheels.

One of the guys that work with me has a NSX with gold Work VS-XX ( I think that is what they are called...) and I am LOVING the look of black on gold. But then again, it is a NSX...

What do you think that would like on a LS?

I dont think gold would look good either. I think if you did silver or brushed aluminum. And yes the black/graphite wheels have become way too popular. Just the other day I saw an Escalade EXT and that new Honda truck with black wheels and then I knew that it had gone too far It still looks great on certain cars though

You can't beat silver.

It is not a fad like other colors that will go out of style in a couple of years.

IMHO silver really shows off the style and detail of the wheel.

I have seen quite a few cars with black wheels around here too.

I'll pick silver over gold.
