White or anthrtacite rims on CD silver? - Focaljet

**Geometry** · 03-12-2001, 11:41 PM

I need some good racing rims. I was thinking of ordering the 17"Team Dynamic Phantoms from Victoria. But I don't know if I want them in white or anthracite need some opinions on which would look better on CD silver.

anthracite is like a dark grey color but gunmetal is darker

those are either chrome or silver.

Cant tell from the light.

normally i am all about white wheels- thats what i have on my focus. but i would have to agree w/ the other two posts!- skip the white if your ride is silver!

go with the anthricite, white only looks good on certain aplications

**the_Scholar** · 04-06-2006, 10:58 PM

I kind of like the white rims on silver. I have white rims and I love them but they are a pain in the ass to keep clean.

By the way, that is not my car. That was FocusSport's car a while back I believe.

**kennym04** · 04-06-2006, 11:48 PM

Silver and dark wheels is the look. IMO there are very few cars that can do white wheels and look good...
