i have a lava and i have gunmetal rims and i love it..... but for a white xB, i definetly think that you should hit it up with either white painted rims, or chhrome rims.... i will almost guarentee that ull not like the look with the black rims..... imo chrome would look best , lowered on goldlines or suttin wit a thumping system..............p

Between those two choices, hyperblack would give more contrast and look better with polar white.

IMO - Black or chrome

Gunmetal is not for white cars.

im not diggin the crome its not my style as for white its just so hard to take of. Looks as though you guys think gunmetal is out of the question, which i was leaning towards. So hyperblack? Yah that would look good on my polar

True. The Axis Spiders would look good, on any color xB. Still loving those wheels.

If I had a PW xB, it depends on the rim pattern, then that's when I would decide between gunmetal and hyperblack.

But I'd say Hyperblack with a polished lip.

Hmm, I would go hyperblack, but you can't go wrong w/ bronze either. I guess it would also depend on the style of the rim.

Not sure about cheap prices. When I get the money, I'm going to a friend's shop to order from.

But if I had BOP, I would get a gold finish colored rim. Cant go wrong with that.

bro, it sounds to me like you don't want hyperblack at all. don't worry aboout what we like. go w/ the gunmetal if thats what you want. i also have a white xb and am looking into rims, but have not decided yet on which ones. not to be mean or anything but, i could care less if people like what i choose or not. i know it's nice to get props from people on your ride, but you ain't always gonna get that. nameeen. pick what you like. peace

I would have to second Brad's opinion. Either color would look good. If you get bronze, I would recommend a Volk wheel. Darker color rather than a bright gold color. Good luck and post pics when purchased and installed.
