gramlight 57 pros on white rs ?

I'm looking to pick up some rims/tires for my car. Its a white Rs. I was either thinking about powder coating/polishing the stockies or picking up some gramlight 57 pros in gunmetal. What do you guys think? What color looks the best on white? I'm not really feeling the gold. I like bronze tho. Thnx

57 pros are the 5 spoke correct?

If so, I think it's very tough to pull off a 5 spoke wheel on a 4 door car....only the best I've seen are Prodrives on Evos on this forum, and a Ray's G-Games 5-spoke wheels on a STi...very though one to pull off...but I'll also go with a darker color like bronze..

57s pros would look sick. Or just get the roja r2-7's. same wheel only rebadged. you can get them from tire rack in black w/ a polished lip. either way i would rather get an aftermarket set.

Personally I like the Gold Pro's but if you like GM go that route, either way they are some tight wheels

I'm not feeling those work emotions at all. I'm going to have to check out those roja's. black with a polished lip sounds sexy. I currently have 245/45/17 on stock wheels. Sound like a good size? rides pretty nice. I really need a new set though.If I take a semi-fast turn the back end whips out like a RWD. Fun but dangerous. Thanks for the help
