I honestly like silver wheels...I really don't like bronze wheels on e-blue, and white would be too bright on the car I think...maybe a lighter gunmetal? not black though...I'd do them something else cuz black's too dark IMO.

Here's my idea: Leave the 'crevices' painted black and change the 'face' of the wheels back to the standard silver/natural color. It'll look good and hide brake dust nicely.

Blue with bronze is ok but I think Eblue is to light for bronze, GM on the other hand... with some CF OMG!!! :eekdance:

That really looks nice. I'd leave it just like that.

Dammit you fuckers with electric blue! If I bought my Neon new, no question, that's the color I would have. I like my silver metallic, but that blue is the best.

Hmm... wheels... I say either gunmetal or OEM color.

you COULD go white, but I wouldn't put much else white on the car...no ghey white graphics or nothing...just like that nice blue one with the white wheels above...just the wheels, nothing else. otherwise, I'd say go with the silver...to me, nothing looks better than a good-looking silver wheel!

White wheels look about as good as chrome tails; uber lame. Might as well throw faded mirror tint, APC stickers, and an aluminum wing on it at the same time to get the full effect.

Leave them alone man...leave 'em alone.

yeah, white wheels look a little "Honda-ish" to me. they don't look that bad, but I would still go with silver or a lighter gunmetal
