Default White and Gold?

What does everyone think of gold wheels on a white IS?

I know there are some out there but wanted to get your input.

My car has black accents such as grille, emblems, roof and my window trim so i was curious to see what people thought of some gold wheels.

Im thinking some 20s with a step lip.

White on gold is the best combo imo, go for it. Weirdazndu and JonJon83 has a really nice gold on white combo.

Those are the two picks i had for my idea, sick cars.

my only thing is i dont plan on slamming it and adding a body kit. I plan to drop it on coilovers and then add wheels.

When i look at my white IS, i think black wheels but thats been done and overdone now. NOT saying cars cant make it nice and look hella clean but gold is deff unique and different.

i'd say try different colors. White on gold is sexy, but who knows you'll start a new color combo trend? hehe be the first. GL!

the white on gold look is pretty clean. for some reason, i prefer gold rims over gold emblems.

I was thinking just gold wheels with chrome lip and black grille and emblems.

Post a picture of your car, so we can get a better idea of what it looks like with the black accents. In general, white and gold look really good together.
