I've always loved black on gold, and that be my first choice.
Black/black would be my second pic. I love the way chrome looks on certain wheels but it's so hard to keep looking nice and not peeling so I wouldn't bother with those.

I'm not really a fan of Black, Gold, or Chrome wheels. Way too flashy for me. The standard Silver finish looks best to me without attracting the wrong kind of attention.

all of those colors are hurting ...same color rim/car setups dont look right unless there is a polished lip and the rims are pain matched, gold is simply horrid on a lexus...sorry bor but this isnt a wrx or evo, and chrome is nasty too.

just my .02

the original poster should add a "none of the above...i need am in need of a style lesson" option

Gold and Bronze are my 2 most favorite colors on a car like this...so i say gold. I think Gold almost goes with any color car.
