If you're after this look, try and get the white OZ Racing Crono-le-mans

I don't see any taste in that pic. It just shows me the owner was a moron.

just remember that although the right white wheels do look pretty damn decent they are an absolute biatch to keep clean... you will need to give them a semi decent wash at least once a week to keep brake dust and general road 'grime' from building up and causing permanent discoloring...

Its a good look, and i did consider white on red but im a lazy pr!ck and didnt like the idea of constantly cleaning them which is why i went with black. Heres a photochop courtesy of Holden Man which shows white SSV rims on a VY.

If you think thats over the top you should see inside the car. This guy has spent over 60k on this vx.

The tints might just be too much red I think
