Your feelings on white wheels

Was wondering how people feel about white wheels. Most people I talk to say they dont like them and they get too dirty. I was wondering how dirty do they get? Do you drive around the block and they are black already after just being washed? Also would they just look goofy on OR? For some reason I must have white!

i think it helps if you change your brake pads to keep them a little cleaner. they dont get too dirty but you will spend some time washing them.

White looks the best. Period.
Although, its way to played out on Fits now. I remember when there was only a handful of Fits with white wheels, now every other picture thread is a Fit with white wheels.

I am been longing for a set of white wheels for a while. I'm torn between white, flat black or anthracite or gunmetal or whatever. My fit is NHBP, so I think white would be the sexiest. However all the good white wheels are like thousands of dollars and I'm not rolling on some knock off Drag or Konig or Rotas.

Tough question, I'd suggest to get some gunmetal or flat black rims. I also love white, just purchased a set of Rays Optimise 57 in white (my Jazz is yellow) but I don't know if that works on a NHBP. But it really depends in the type of rim.

Now I'm interested in how quickly the set of white rims will get dirty. I hate the whole washing stuff. Lots of work with the weather here.

I love white rims even though they are a bear to keep clean. If I can enough refund from Uncle Sam will be
getting my new rims in the spring with new tires to finish it out.

I love my white Buddy Club. It's a little more work to clean them but they are so nice after a wash.
