White Coupe with White Rims?

[browneyes]

Hey guys, as some of you may know, I'm still searching for the right set of rims for my white 3.5se coupe, and I'm just keeping my options open.

I've looked at black rims, bronze rims, hyper silver rims, etc etc.

But I have yet to come across a white coupe with white rims.

I found a seller for some nice rims that are white but I'm still unsure of how it would look on a white coupe.

If anyone has any pictures or have white rims on a white coupe yourself, help me out here and post some pictures!

Pretty sure it hasn't been done yet so you would be the first. I was going to do this a few years ago when I first got my car and then realized how good black rims really look on our white coupes so I went with those. You can check some pics on my cardomain http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3922936/2 ... s-coupe-2d

yeah i haven't seen one either.
i saw your pics on your link and i gotta say, black rims are very appealing too as i have black rims at the moment as well.
nothing special, just painted my oem rims to see how it would look..
im from canada where there is snow so i plan to use my blacked out oem rims as winter rims and whites in the summer since my summer tires are done and need to be replaced anyway =P

great job on your car though!

I had the same idea myself about white since i have not seen any coupes in my area with white in the rims.I have a white 2011 Coupe 2.5s and currently I have some 20" Velocity 825's on it. The rims stock were chrome with black inserts but i'm currently getting them changed to pearl white.

Here is what I currently have:

Basically i'm takiing those black inserts and getting them converted to pearl white to match the car

Czonin, your wheels are done very well. I was thinking about doing a white lip or white stripe but ended up going with a different wheel that was black & machined. Which wasn't the best choice...cause now the clear coat is peeling off all my wheels

Browneyes: Have you searched for other types of coupes that have white wheels? I know it's not exactly the same, but at least it will give you more of an idea of how it'd look on your coupe. Like a TC or Genesis.

Thanks! Was a pain in the a$$ to do that white stripe.
