White looks much better because of your roof and mirrors.

I agree: white, because of the roof and mirrors. Although they will be a pain to keep clean.

It is going to come down to whatever YOU think looks best, since you will be the one who has to look at it. If the roof is dark, then dark wheels are good. I don't think white is feminine per se; pink would be a different story!

Blue/White is honestly one of my favorite combos. Not feminine at all.

I've been drooling over UKSUV's car since day one

Ziano in FL sells a product which you spray onto your wheels and then allow them to air dry. A friend uses this stuff on his S-lite rims while using stock brake pads...and he NEVER has brake dust on his rims....ever. It's supposed to keep the BD from sticking onto the rim and it works very well.
