I like the look of them...they aren't gaudy. Like you, I'd need to see them on a white car to really give an opinion.

I'm thinking the black RS7s will look hot on your car. Not a huge fan of bronze or black, want the silver rs7s myself. But, I think the black will be sick.

edit:
Don't know of any photochoppers here. But there are some good ones over at b15sentra.net Someone there should be able to hack something up to help you out.

I like the look of dark rims on light cars. Especially if you accent it with other dark trim on the car.

I like white wheels on white cars, but only if they are exotics. Otherwise I'd stick with silver. No offense, but black wheels remind me of a police car. One huge detailing plus, though, brake dust doesn't matter! (Brad, you don't want to see my wife's MINI with the white wheels)

I think Bronze, Black, or Gunmetal for an 04 White Sentra.

Both Brad's and bunmango's rides look great and their wheel selection fit.

Look over your car carefully to see whats painted/not painted as well as your plans for it and that should help your decision.

There are several websites that allow you to see your model of car, in your color, with your choice of rims. Try this link to tirerack.com: http://www.tirerack.com/upgrade_gara...4&autoModClar=

This should help give you a good idea for your car.

Black is ok as long as they don't look too much like spares

I prefer silver/chrome or white rims on white cars.
