So my front brakes are dusty as sht, so I'm not sure white is the right colour for me

Can someone try a few colours they think will work on this car

Even comments on what would work on whitestivo would be good.

They are 16x7, so the bigger they look the better for me.

Good man Phil, glad to see someone else realises that rims should match the colour of brake dust. Go for a 'titanium' or 'gunmetal' colour to hide the dust best. Plus it looks better than white rims :ph34r:

That works for me (used to have Greenstuffs, which would make the wheels black within 2 weeks), but the downside is that the polished rim (which acts as a contrast) would also go black and make the wheels look smaller than they really were (and plainer too).

Don't go green rims, wouldn't suit a white car at all. Plus there is a clown up the street from me who drives (or is it thrashes?) a S13 that has green rims, you don't want to be associated with that clown do you? He even stuffs up his hard shifting out front of my house and grinds the synchros.

Hiro. Not to mention a build up pf brake dust on the rims/tyres tends to turn an ugly grey brown if left too long. Most likely the small amounts of steel from pad/rotor rusting.
