Hey guys n gals, I see alot of nice rides on this forum and I'm still in the beginning stages of hooking up my ride. The problem I have is that I have a Beige colored SC400 w/ gold emblems and its hard to know which colored rims I should use. I kinda narrowed it down to black or chrome but i would like to know and take a vote on which color rims to choose. I'm probably going to have to change the emblems color too. Anyway, this is a photoshoped pic of my car with glossy black rims with a stainless steel lip. I like Manarays car but don't want to do the same thing and i did a search but beige SC's are just not in i guess. Can you blame'em.

If it were me (which it isn't, I realize) I'd stick with something close to the factory wheel color. Although since you said you'd narrowed it down to black or chrome. Go for the chrome. Just don't get too flashy, because too flashy usually equals stolen. Or at least that was the case for my brother. Although I can't see the emblems on your car, I'd imagine the gold looks pretty good Thought matching the chrome emblems with the wheels might look really good.

Gold emblems are kind of played. If you get a polished or chrome lip, chrome emblems would look better.imo

Chrome CCW's would look good, definately something with a nice lip. Check out Workaholic's rims.

They're polished, not chrome...

I personally think black/gunmetal rims are played out... I saw new Toyota Prius at the Toyota dealership in Santa Monica sitting on such rims -- they're done.

I personally think you can't go wrong with a set of CCWs or something similiar. For the price, CCW makes a great wheel.
