Default Graphite on gold

I was looking at a set of wheels, they're gold with chrome lips, what do u guys think of gold wheels on my graphite is350? They sure look good on white tho.

I think it looks good. It looks a bit racer, if thats the look you want. I do think they look better than your old wheels.
