Not a big fan of the silver or the black wheels. I think the silver wheels look too plain and the black wheels look small against the white car. But if I had to pick, I would go with the black.

Hey J, I didn't realize you bought a sc430, congrats.

As far as these wheels, if these are your winter wheels than I say go for it.

I would have opted to have them in brushed finish but that doesn't look bad at all.

Looks good Johnny!

Definitely a different look, but you'll still be able to pull it off.

Personally I think they would look better in a different finish brushed or blackchome. They look better than Iforged. Nice for a winter wheel. I cant wait to see your new wheels

White on White

I've always liked white on white. I had an Accord about 10yrs ago that was white on white and it was "unique".

Black face

My friend gives me grief about having black face rims on my silver SC.... Now I am thinking about a trade. I think black face rims looks sporty, IHMO. If that's the look you are going for, then great deal.
