    With tires? Wow, that's pretty flipping cheap! Good looking wheel design, but I'm not sure how good gold would look with red. Gunmetal or black would look pretty nice though.

      I think the hyper silver would look good with red.

        X2 on the gunmetal. Bet it would look sick.

            you dont own a ferrari but with or without our opinion your gunna get what you want but gunmetal looks sick wih red and if your car is darker red black looks just as good

              x3 on gunmetal/hypersilver with the polished lip, would look sick with some nice tint and niteshades too.

              IMO even that ferrari would look better with hypersilver or polished rims over the gold, especially with those silver stripes

                Point is it's red... and you can't argue those rims look dayum sexy on that ferrari. I did some google searches and found similar threads on other car forums, a lot of people say gold is ugly on red... but still, those ferraris :omg: Maybe I should first put the money into getting my car painted ferrari red :P

                True :rock: so I guess there's no point to this thread :stp:

                I never was a fan of gunmetal. In my opinion it's just a default aftermarket rim color that goes with any car color. For me the decision was just between chrome and gold, but I haven't seen any 4th gens with gold rims so I just wanted some other opinions.

                        no matter what you do, get 9" wide wheels. You will love being able to rock 275's all around.

                          ^agreed.

                          i'm running 275's on all corners with 9.5" wide rims, looks great for stance and performs great.

                            gold would work but youre going to need to do gold accents to pull it off IMO. otherwise it'll look stupid with gold wheels and nothing that matches it. unless you want to drive around looking like one of those asshat subaru wrx owners.

                              I'd have to agree.
