Did they come white from the rim manufacturer? I personally like the white.

Re: Paint the wheels?

I like the white. But until someone photoshops them a different color I can't see them as any other color..

Re: Paint the wheels?

I personally think if you painted them a dark gray to match the bottom part of the car it would look nice.

The color of the trim would look good but gun metal would look even better.
