The real question is how do YOU think they'll look. Paint them to match the body for the best visual effect (IMHO). I love mine and have had nothing but compliments. GL!

Silver, in my opinion. Not a fan of black accents on wheels on blue cars.
Chrome would be nice as well, but pricey. silver = poor mans chrome

I think it would be interesting to paint the inserts blue. Ronal can match the same exact paint color. Just find the GM paint code and they will mix the right tint.
They charcoal or the black would look pretty nice also. That way, you can easily sell them or transfer them to another car if you choose.

I wonder how many photoshops have been done from that side pic of my car....
After seeing RU-QUIK's car with my Ronals with the black inserts, I would go with them!!
Wait, I already did...

Yes, the wheels in my sig picture are factory 16" wheels that I polished. They came on 91-92 Camaros, they were an option for the RS, and standard for the Z28.
