I'm with him, go unique do white. White on White is awesomely white. I'm actually doing my RG-D white next year after it collects enough road debris and chipping.

Sorry Chebosto I have to use your pic I edit again because it's just so awesome haha if you don't mind.
How about doing Hello Kitty Rim coloring like this?

IMO get the mag blue, I wanted to get it so bad but decided to get the Diamond Black (same wheels, 18x10.5 CE28n's). If I ever curb my wheels up I'd get them done in the same mag blue volk does, I think it looks pretty awesome on white.

To me, blue vs bronze is NO competition, bronze was never on my list for colors on my CE's.

I personally think a white X with black wheels looks the best. You have a great tuner look but also can still rock them as you get older.

But out of your 2 options, I'd say the bronze.

White on white looks great but... good luck keeping them clean. Pretty for taking pics... And I mean drive one trip and they are dirty... f that... that is my opinion.

Mag blue... not a big fan of them and they are similar to black which like I will say the same about black wheels, they hide the look of the wheel... This is a preference thing.

Black... easiest to keep clean or not have to wash all the time but I think black wheels do not do any wheel justice. Black hides the spokes and overall look of the wheels too much.

Bronze... light enough where you can see the spokes and overall shape of the wheel. Looks best IMO with White cars.... fairly easy to keep clean.

Keep in mind that you are about to dump a good amount on money wheels so I say pick a color that YOU really like regardless of what people say. These are just my opinions. I went through 4 sets of wheels between an STI and my EVO which is now sold. I plan on picking up a WW EVO later this year and I will either go with Bronze or Silver. I like simplicity. Good luck and hope this helps.

oh and as for sizing(in case you are not aware)... this really depends on how much work you want to do to make them fit and how low the car will sit. The 18x9.5 will fit with no fender work. The 18x10.5s, you will definitely have to do some work to get them to fit to run at least a 275... depending on what you are going to run tire wise.

Yeah..my WW evo is dirty, I don't think I'd be able to keep the white wheel cleans.
And as for 18x10.5s I used to run a set of 18x10.5 +13 classics but the clearance as too big of an issue for me, I ran -2.6F -2R on 265 and stilled rubbed.
I was wondering if I can go up to 275 on the 18x10.5 +18s and not rub ? Because I'm trying to stray away from stretched tires, how much clearance will that 5mm give me

Did you roll your fenders? It should fit no problem with +18 offset with 265 width tires.
