I think it would look nice. But it is just my opinion...

Gold looks good, get what you like. Black and white cars look hot w/ gold centers.

After seeing some pictures, I still think that gold rims are ugly.
My 2 cents

It sure does make the car stand out more, but it's not my cup of tea I prefer silver or combination of black and silver.

My mom had a Black "Smokey and the Bandit" Trans-am with gold rims that didn't look bad. Of course it had a big gold eagle on the hood too I thought it was the greatest thing I'd ever seen...but then again that was late 70's and I was only 15 at the time!!! I say go for it if you like it

I like gold. Just really depends on the wheel. BBS LM Gold is a good example of a good gold wheel. ALso Volk Racing and Work, but theyre japanese type wheels. Those Gold Luffs dont look good IMO. The gold on it looks wack. The color and paint matters i guess. Not just any gold.
