How about stock silver and not making your car look like you're a 12-year-old girl?

I kid, I kid. Seriously though, this neon stuff has gotten out of hand and is going to look dated soon enough.

Something like Avant Garde's brushed-polished silver would really pop for that color. Other manufacturers might have a similar, bright silver. You could also do black or turquoise. Here are the examples that I am thinking of. If you are going to order from Get Your Wheels, they should be able to apply these colors to the Forgestars as well.

Wheels should be something along the grey scale. Black, silver or any shade in between.

^ is that a recent pic? Because your grass is way too green for Cali having a drought.

J/K car looks great ��

car care, lawn care > water conservation.

Gold is also acceptable if your wheels are genuine forged magnesium.

I am partial to candy tangelo orange. I put these on a friends Daytona Blue 350z and they looked equally as good.

I know this is not my choice but, orange is a bit... vibrant for my tastes. I'm not sure that would work with Midnight Blue. Black however, I could see that.
