Default Need help on deciding what color rims to get...

Iwas wondering if I could get help from folks here on the board. I'm currently shopping around for some rims. I have a black xB that's fully stock, and I'm not sure if I'm going to change much on it. I do however plan on throwing a rack on top and have already placed a bB badge in the front and back. I don't plan on dropping it and I don't want rims bigger than 17" either.

I liked the clean look of black rims or black with a polished lip, but I think the rack might take away from it. I'm also cosidering white rims as well. If you guys could post pictures of your own black xB's, and rims out there that you think look nice on a black xB please post them. Thanks.

with a black xb, I think chrome looks the best, but if you're deciding between white and black, I'd go with white.

I vote for chrome. I went for chrome on my BOP xB and would have done the same if I could have got a black one.

These are Kazera rims from the Tire Rack with 215-40-17 Yokohama Avid H4S tires. Click on the link in my sig to get to the Tire Rack website.

Thanks guys. A lot of people are telling me chrome would look best as well. More pictures like the one shown are perfect. What would really be great is pics of what rims you have while sporting a surf rack.

please, can the bling thing just finally die? just say no to chrome. throw away the wheel covers and paint your stock 15's red, like whatshisface did. those wheels rule. check the forum that says "who's dropped on 15s" for pics...worth seeking out.
