Help me choose new rim color!

Whats up guys,

Like the title says I am looking to change things up a bit. Trying to paint my rims a different color. I have varrstoen te37 reps (College student budget). I am going a bit more ballsy on this one and am open to a lot of different colors. The only issue I am running into is my car is not aggressive enough to rock REALLY bright colors, but then again.... why not. Let me know what colors you would recommend! I am thinking about tiffany blue or white with "Paint Splatter"

Here are some pics of my car:

white would be a good contrast, but it's not a good look on a G35.

I would stick with bronze, or if you really want to switch, get gunmetal.

That actually looks pretty good. The rims were white when I bought them originally but painted them black. I wasnt lowered at the time so it didn't look to great but maybe I will go with white!

It got ruined. Driving one day and a dog ran out in the middle of the road, swerved and hit a curb. Luckily I was able to stop in time so the front bumper was all that was damaged.

"Bring on the Haters"

What are you trying to accomplish with this statement? You ask us for advice and then ask us to hate on your ride. What do you want?

It does look nice, but I see its of hondas with this color.
