White Wheels on a PW

I was wondering what White Wheels look like on a PW Cooper (S).

I like the idea of white wheels, but i dont want it to look dumb on an off-white car....

Does Anyone have any pics of white wheels on a PW Cooper?

They'll never stay white longer than a day, and they'll be grimy and gray with brake dust quick.

Just my thoughts

You can go to the MINI site and build a PW w/ the white crown spoke wheels, just to get an idea. Doesn't look right IMO, but might look pretty clean if they were painted to match the off white body.
