Actually your wheel/car color combo is somewhat similar to mine, which I have come to really like. And it's funny you mention the stripe, I had thought of maybe doing a stripe the same color as my wheels, I bet it will look badass.

Yeah dude I love that color combo I think it looks sweet. Chrome is nice, but it's a pain to keep clean and I think my car will look stealthy with the Gunmetal Grey wheels. I'm definitely doing that with the hood, I think it'll look nasty.

Tested out one of the wheels today. I think it looks good. It fits, but it's almost too wide and almost hits the wheels well. Here's the best pic I took:

Okay good. That means I just gotta get some tires and I'll be good to put them on! I'm pumped, those wheels will completely change the look of the car for the better.

BTW they're 17x9 in the front and 18x10.5 in the back
