If u go gold, don't leave the lip silver as it makes this already small wheel look tiny, I would rather paint it dark (graphite would look good against silver car) so that it sort of flows with the tire and looks bigger/more agressive (look at spoon - it's flat black on purpose). Just my opinion, do whatever u like

Do the whole thing gold I was thinking of doing this would look better on my berlina as compared to silver but give it a whirl

Nah. Not on Sebring (or any silver for that matter).

I agree if you are going to do it do the whole rim. if you want to break up the all gold look you could use anycolor pinstriping and go around the lip of the wheel.

I dont like it with just the center gold

Personally, I think if you were to color something small (like your brake calipers) gold, then against Sebring Silver it wouldn't look that bad.

But with the whole wheel, it'd clash too much.
