Powder coating my Carrozzeria's....what color???

I have a set of gold Carrozzeria's that I am getting powder coated. I have a blue and white 06 1k, Im having problems deciding on a color.

White
Black
Blue

I know the white will be a bitch to keep clean, but I think they will look good. The black would be the easiest, but I would like the wheels to stand out a bit from stock. The blue would probably look cool, but im concerned with the blue not matching right.

Any opinions?????

post a pic of your bike with the wheels on, and ask someone to change the colors using photoshop. There are enough guys on this site that are good at that shit.
I dont have any pics of these wheels on my bike.....I know the gold didnt look too hot on the blue and white. I will try to find some pics of another members bike, and see if I cant get it photo shopped. Good suggestion, thanks.
I would like white.

There's good enough cleaners out on the market.

XL motorcycle wash...spray on pressure wash off no scrubbing and they come out looking brand new.
Go with the lighter blue with painted rim strip in white and maybe a micro-thin strip of GSXR red-orange.

Another option is this beautiful blue I saw in the new issue of Two wheel tuner where the owner painted the entire bodywork Bentley Contineltal mettalic baby blue. Forget the heavy-expensive chrome on his chassis and paint your new wheels Maserati bianco fuji, a real hot pearlescent white.

Your bike would defitnitly stand out as a mix of both, peformance with the bling quotion. Dare to be diffrent by having a bike that offers stunning performance and looks good. You don't have to pick either ratty racer or Mr. Bling, you can do both and keep them wondering who the hell just passed-wheelied by them with that 'flash paint'.

Google both cars on their main web-site to see the finishes Im talking about and pick this month's issue of T.W.T.

GOOD LUCK.

Gold.
I would go with black personally, but if you want them to stand out then go with white.
They were already Gold, it looked like doo doo on the blue and white. Im about to say F it and go black.
