Can't decide between black or gold?
So I'm having trouble deciding between gold or black wheels on my wrb blue brz.
My original vision was a black and blue color combo (username lol) going with black wheels, tinted black side markers, black badging, the matte black STi underspoilers, black Valenti tailights, and 20% tint all around. However everytime I walk out of my house I see my 04 wrx rotting away and the gold wheels with wrb looks so iconic! God this is hard.... Any of you have had black and gold wheels on your car? |

Gold wheels should be reserved for 1977 Trans Ams and Pimpmobiles...
My vote is Black.

Keep in mind gold comes in all kinds of shades, so there is a lot more flexibility and certain shades of gold look better in certain styles etc. I would say gold. As cliche as it is, it still looks amazing. Black will mute the blue too much, gold will accent and complement it. Go for gold

Black for the street, cause it always looks good.
Gold for the track cause it still looks good, but can become overpowering when its on all the time.
