Can't go wrong with white. I love white! My charge pipes and intake pipe are white along with my emblems and bowties. I was debating on doing my dash trim white too, but haven't decided on that yet...

how much bind do you have? mine isn't too bad but i may order Powell F23 rotated mounts at some point if i get tired of what bind i do have
Honestly, it doesn't even bother me, it's slight wheel shake when accelerating from like 0-20...

Well I love white... but I don't want to clean my wheels every day.

I already wash my car twice a week

Don't be a *****! White is about the only color that would look good on your color.

I wanted to do white tc wheels on the yellow but my dash trim and shift knob is all a slate metallic grey. So I'll probably do the wheels the same color.

Won't be any different then having a black or white car. It won't be that hard to keep clean. Every day just wipe the dirt off quick. 5 minutes.

I'll have to try white first before I spend the money to powder coat them, when I pick up my extra set of wheels this weekend I'll paint them white with plastidip or spray paint and see how bad it is

Good luck man!

I can't wait to get mine powder coated the same color as my interior. Like I said, if my interior was done white I'd powder coat the tc wheels white.

If anyone needs an extra set of wheels. I still willing to sell the extra set i have that I got from Toby. tires still passable on inspection althought 2 will be needed in near future. I'd probably want like 200$ for em minimum since tires are still good.

btw Toby, I'd probably say if you want to go gray then you might as well go with a charcoal or gunmetal. or if you want to do a black then try satin black. I'm painting the very bottom lips of my car satin black and my MSR's are satin black, its a pretty sick color.

I have but white definitely looks better then black on the red cobalts. I'd stick with white.

It sucks, I was hoping they'd be here for Carlisle. Doesn't look like that's going to happen.
