no need to go to tech9 seeing as how i work at a bridgestone tyre centre.. and i've had a few mates use tech9 and i've heard bad things.

Black goes good with yellow IMO or how about black spokes / chrome rim (best of both worlds:))

I was having a similar discussion about wheels the other day.

Im personally over chrome wheels.

I think the Black would look crazy on it. Black and Yellow are a good mix.

my vote goes black or black/chrome lip.

If you can why not post a pic of your car and some possible rim choices and some phtoshop gurus may be able to give you a preview of what it's going to look like.

I think black with yellow too.
