Just picked up this 5mt 08 Fit RS and struggling to decide on wheels... White / Bronze / Alloy etc... 17's or 16's... I will be getting coil-overs in the next few months too as a consideration..
I was going to buy a Miata / MX-5 but just couldn't ignore how bloody versatile these cars are!
Wheels are a matter of personal taste. All you have to please, is yourself. Myself, I would have put bronze wheels on the white car. Black wheels make it look like you lost the hubcaps off steel wheels or a wannabe police car. Not my thing. Again if you're happy that's all that matters.
Another vote for metallic gray, or "graphite." White will ALWAYS be filthy, and when clean, will be the only thing you see when you look at the car.

Agreed 1000% Besides overstated (white or chrome) rims that are all you notice, nothing looks dumber than rims you can't even see. I always said same thing - black rims look like you're missing hubcaps...
