I was bored today and decided to test something out. I've been wanting to get some new wheels, and for some reason White keeps coming to mind. Anyway, I have a 95 Talon TSI-AWD with Enkei RS-Evolution wheels that were painted to match the OEM white color of the car. I decided to take one wheel off the Talon and put it on my Stook. Here is a pic. What do you think? Would white look good on my red S2k?

PS> I'm just using my Talon rim as a test rim to see the color combo in person. I don't intend to use these rims on my S2k.

I personally prefer polished silver, but white doesn't look bad.

My 2 cents: White rims look bad on a red car. Go with chrome/silver (although I do like the actual rim - they must look pretty good on your talon).

white & black are very popular amongst japanese car fans... and honda is a japanese brand, isn't it?
So chrome would be a crime, stock is ok, white is cool if you track the car, and matt black is the ultimate coolness statement!

Stick with silver. IMO, white wheels look a little cheesy for me. I see lots of slammed preludes, civis, and integras around here with that look and the first thing i think of is grand tourismo 2.

still, to each his own.
