colors colors???

so got this silver storm GE8, and not sure what color rims to go with, never had a silver car before and was thinking that just regular ole silver rims would be the best, but i usually go with a crazy color combo, so whats you guys input on colors??

Normally I'd say do something like matte black for the rims...

However, if you're going for some crazy color combo... I'd look into painting them lime green, or even like a dark purple.

some sort of rich deep burgandy/purple in a high gloss would be hot. No polished lips, our offsets are too weak to pull them off.

Grow some balls and be the first If you wanna be different there is a price to pay...you'll either be envied for your choice or ridiculed. Take your pick of color and go for it...hindsight is always 20/20.
