And i second that comment about a white car in the snow...it would be nice to stand out haha
you're absolutely right, this is just a hard decision bc I have a love/hate relationship with the color that they are now and as for gold and bronze you just can't go wrong with either when its sitting on a white car

I like teal a lot. It'll definitely be a head turner.

haha Tiffany Blue does look nice but its a little too bold for me. Volk mag blue looks kinda cool I'd like to see it photoshopped though.

Btw this is the picture that got me to buy the hyper black LFA reps. As you can see it's not as dark as it is in the picture but it does get that dark when I have alot of brake dust on it lol

Not a fan of colorful wheels. I would say leave them as is....Honestly, your car is so clean and fresh the way it sits now.
