Default Gold wheels go with what color?
Configuring my July PCA Summer raffle win. Figured, since I'm configuring a free car, why not go a little crazy with colors and wheels? My question simple: what paint colors will work well with gold wheels? Adventurine Green is an obvious choice, but I've seen this color in the wild and its too sedate for me. Opinions?

How about the whites (but not chalk) or blues (but not Miami Blue)?

That would look good. Here is a pic with white.

Gold is a flashy color, something neutral paired with it is best like white or black. Personally I think red and gold is the worst combo, two loud colors clashing and a bit too Ronald Mcdonald overall. Red and bronze is better since bronze is like a muted gold.

This does not look anything like Ronald McDonald.


And if you had a darker red like Carmine it would look amazing.
