Yep I agree

White is really played out now and is a pain to keep clean.

Black ---- I like it (gunmetal looks better)
White --- to hard to keep clean
Bronze ---- look nice, but personally I think it a will be played out in not too long --- still looks sweet!!!
Silver --- you can't go wrong

Ask yourself how long you plan on having them. If you think you'll get rid of them in couple of years at most then bronze or gunmetal). If you want a set you can keep forever and still look great get silver.

Side note ----> I have silver.

What's the difference between gunmetal and black? I like the way the darker color wheels look up close, but it's almost like you can't see them. I often mistake them for hubcaps but that's obviously just me. Thanks for the input guys.

I would go with silver. I agree that white is a bit*h to keep clean and I don't care much for black and gunmetal wheels.
