Silver is my vote. I personally only like black on black cars (with a polished lip). I think white wheels are not attractive in general. Thats only an opinion; you should pick what YOU like. There are other good choices besides silver. I think lighter gunmetals, bronze, and greys can look good too. Good luck.

i think silver looks best with red cars but that my opinion as well, i also agree with j black should stick with black cars. I've seen white alot on red cars it looks okay but tacky compared to silver.

I was thinking bronze/gold rims to, but they r expensive because every one wants em now. I dont personaly like silver rims...im tryin 2 keep the car just black and just red. Only other thing thats not going to be red n black is my springs and shocks

MR7 on a sport compact, particularly an import, is like a thread asking what engines can be swapped into a Celica -- been done to death.
I'll admit, they're nice wheels, and as long as you don't mind having a large portion of the tuner market wearing the same wheels, they're a good choice. |

they are ok in silver, but still 2 flashy..im trying 2 get attention..but not 2 much. I want the car 2 get attention, but i dont want to get the bling bling ricer attention, hense why i went with colours other than silver or chrome.

If you've got it nailed done to either the MR7 or RT5, definately go with the RT5. I sell wheels for a living, and I've seen MR7's done a million times (almost literally). The RT5 is a new style and I think a whole lot better looking.
