Are you talking about painting the car a different color or the wheels? If your talking about the car, there is alot of work that goes into changing a cars color, you have to pain everything for it to look right ( engine bay, jams, ect... ), its ussually pretty pricey to change a cars color. If your talking about the wheels Im not sure I would change them, black would look better than either of those two options on a alloy car.

Personally, your in a color that is the least bit of maintenance to keep looking good.

White or red is relatively easy to maintain, but nothin like Alloy/silver/gray.

White tends to show all of the dark dirt,tar, chips, and those sort of things. I would chose it over Red hands down.

Color changes are a pretty extensive job when done right. Be prepared for that..
