White rims... just a fashion fad, or can they really look good.? Got a blue bike and fancied some white rims... is it right or wrong?

White rims on their own may stand out a little, but add a white seat and grips and possibly cable outers) and I reckon it'd look pretty damn cool.

Yep... was thinking about that... white rims on a blue frame & mostly black component bike might look a bit odd.

White rims don't look or get any dirtier than any other colour rims. Besides, what ffs is wrong with a mountain bike getting dirty?

IMO white rims will look good, but only like the other trendy bikes thats are following suit, and the novelty will soon wear off. I think they look cheap after looking at them at work so much... (bike shop of course!)
