What if the members who suggested bright pink are serious? You asked for opinions. You got them...

See how redundant your question is?

actually...Bright pink isn't such a bad idea on a dark grey car. If someone wanted to be a real ******* they should have said Chrome dubs or rattle can green

for some, fitment is all that matters n' the more abstract it is the more appealing. Imo, its more about execution.

Have you seen a HELLAFLUSH event?

btw, suggestion for simple n' easy - Hyper Silver or Hyper Black on a skinny 8 spoke or something like some wedsport tc105's

White will look awesome, and it would be different from others.

There ya go, my TiGrey with Breyton GTS-AV rims (18x8+45)... i also got a set of Infiniti G35 rims... if you check threads like "Calling All Titanium Greys" or "Calling All Galaxy Greys", youll get more ideas. look into the media gallery next time for inspiration first, so many different setups you could answer your own questions.

Badass = black, minimal spoke
GT = gunmetal or perhaps bronze
Cruiser = silver or shiny, complicated spoking

Depends what you want.

Depends what gray you are talking about, TiG, Galaxy,Metro...

I vote for tiffany blue color.

White might look nice on a TiG..
Black or a bright orange on Galaxy.
Dark gray for Metropolitan
