White is great on either a dark color car, or a white car.

Here's mine..

who has that ugly 4gen accord

i think you should get some rims that contrast the color of the car. white is cool on cobalt blue, or a dark blue. for anything else there is gun metal. For silver carz chromez

I personally don't like white rims. It matters where you live. You see me and biker live in Toronto. We get lots of rain or snow, so it will be too much of a hassle!

On a white car, I think anything but white rims would look nice. Pick something that contrasts a little.

I like white rims....but if your going to paint your car white...put a carbon fiber hood on and then black rims....that looks good yo

I was going to put the 6 spoke white ray's on my white civic...but then decided not to....

I think it depends on the color of the car and the color scheme your trying to hit.
