When I put the 6" lift on the Highlander I owned I chose white spokes. They were the cheapest wheels which allowed more for better tires,and the truck was all original/unrestored so I wanted it to look like it had always been that way when I was done. What's the point of putting expensive flashy wheels on a truck with 40 year old paint,small dents,and dull dinged up trim? I think they made it look better than most any other wheel out there. They nailed the look I was after:
Your Highlander is 50% if the reason I thinking of keeping the white spokes. The other 50% is cost .... haha. Less spent on rims the more tyre I can afford.
