+1 for bronze or copper if you’re looking for more flashy

Definitely need to ceramic coat white wheels to help keep them clean!

For the record, I’ve had white wheels in the past (on a Miata I used to own). I never had any issues keeping them clean. I think the “cleanliness/dinginess” will only occur if one doesn’t make the effort to simply keep their vehicle clean and maintained. It was a non-issue for me. But (respectfully) I still think white is not the right choice for the color of wheel for your truck. 😄
I agree with this. White wheels are not necessarily harder to clean if you stay on top of the general cleaning of your vehicle. I had a model y with white powered coated uber turbines.

I get it. I just had custom 20s made for my Glacier White R1S and should have them by the end of the month. I was going for something between Dune Edition and Rally Group B.

Of course, I'll ceramic coat them. Car washing happens weekly. These are photos of the actual wheels.

Personally, not sure I'd do white wheels with that shade of green, but go for it if that's your thing.

Agree with this — also think the Dune wheels best lend themselves to being painted white. Add the white top and an expedition rack would complete the look! Good luck and keep us updated. MJP
Yes as they take on some of the old school look of white painted steel wheels.
Spoked aluminum I prefer silver/grey/black.

Thanks to everyone for their feedback. I really appreciate it. I think if my truck was a different color, the white wheels would probably pair better. I am planning to go with the gloss black powder coating. Thanks again!
