Depends on the color of the car your putting it on.

I'm not a fan of colored wheels like red, blue, lime green, etc. They cheapen the look of the car, and give it a ricey look to me. A lot of people seem to like to take the S550 in that kind of direction, which I'll never understand, but then again, it's not my money, so, it doesn't effect me.

Of those three, just based on the above statement, the root beer looks the least bad. I think it would look great on a golf club, but on wheels? Nah. Chrome, silver, gunmetal, and my least favorite - black. But the goofy colors, no thanks.

Totally understand. Some wheel colors aren't for everyone. We like to have something for everyone though. We do have silver, gunmetal and black as well. Thank you for your feed back :cheers:

I think a more neutral color with a subtle metal flake looks a lot better than brightly colored wheels. For example, Honda's night hawk black has a blue flake in it. Something like that would be pretty sweet on just about any color car. I would like a dark gunmetal, bronze or charcoal color with some metallic flake on my DIB personally.

Translucent red looks good on a white car and it will go well with the brake lights

Want to donate a set to me for testing :D:D

Root Beer...as long as it is the only "flashy" mod on the car.

Yeah, that is a cool idea as well. Metallic flakes give it a nice touch especially when the sun hits it. Thank you for the feedback :cheers:
