Black with the machined lip , although I'm biased because I cant stand chrome anymore.

Chrome is bleh

Black shows no definition of the wheel. All you see is a black blob. If I had a white GT I would do a silver or machined wheel.

If you can find any more pictures, AmBo had a very nice looking white 00 GT with some Saleens. I'd have to say it's my favorite white new edge on here!

Yea, I see what you mean, no definition
Black wheels are a love it or hate it mod. +1 with EPIK also. FWIW, I love Black wheels.

BLACK FTW Beautiful car y2k2gt.

However if you are leaning against smoked tails/headlights, or other black accents on the car, then definately anthracite. Chrome looks great on the Saleens but IMO a DD chrome bullitt on a white car isnt the way to go... Just my opinion of course.

Conditions have to be perfect for you to be able to see them in a pic. The black/flat back trend only belongs on excotics. Mustangs do not pull it off well.

I had the gray bullitts on my white GT, and swapped them out for the 99 gray 5-spokes because the bullitt wheel looks best either chrome or black and chrome. The gray is meh. Not bad looking but nothing to care one way or the other about.

I don't get why people complain black wheels don't look good in pictures because you can't see the detail. I don't drive a picture of my car. I've always thought a black wheel with a polished or machined rim looked awesome. Obviously anyone who puts them on their "exotic" agrees with me. As does anyone who puts them on their mustang

Chrome wheels are nice, but everybody has chrome wheels.
