Default Dye them black or leave them white

Okay...I just got some Imex ALL-Ts and some RPM Sling Shots for my WidePede. When I ordered them, the plan was to dye the rims black, but when I test fitted them up, I found the white rims don't look that bad. So guys, take a look and tell me what you think.

I included a pic of how mean the stance looks with these things on as well.

I dont like those rims..... so the black would hide them. I say paint them black, just my .02 cents.

Leave 'em white, that way they match the body.

I like the white, cool match to the middle white stripe on the body. Question--what gearing are you running with such wide tires?
