What color would look best?

I know it's a matter of opinion, but for my Meteorite Metallic....chrome or gunmetal colored rims? I can't make up my mind!

*Any pics of your own Yaris would help*

Gunmetal would blend in your Meteorite Metallic better as chrome will be quite stand out by itself.

Go for gunmetal if you want people to say "nice ride" to you.
Go for chrome if you want people to say " nice bling bling, nice chrome" to you

Gunmetal +1

I would certainly never suggest chrome wheels. Both silver and gunmetal would look good. If you're into black wheels, they may look good with a polished rim.

EDIT: Check-out the Official meteorite metallic thread

Gunmetal or black. Or bronze... bronze doesn't look bad either.

Both! The spokes are gunmetal and the outsides are chrome...



Looks great on a black car...



Cheers! M2

I have same color sedan and wish I had bought the gunmetal instead of the wheels to match the car. I think the gunmetal would help the car stand out better.
