....black, definately. They look WAY better than the gold ones. I think the rims look better, the same color as the body of the car....just my opinion, though.

depends on the car. can't go wrong with either as long as they are clean and in good shape.

If I had to choose, black.

Re: Please help Gold GTA rims or Black GTA rims

black gives it a more subdued look. gold makes it look hot. do you want subdued or hot?
