It's all going to come down to your personal preferance. I think your going to have mixed opinions either way. People are starting to say that white rims are a bit cliche, but I think it looks good on most cars/colors that I've seen. I really don't know how it would tie together with a spicy msp though. Spicy orange seems like it would be a tough color to pick out rims for, at least for me. (besides black wheels). It's just such a unique color
 
Yea i agree. it is pretty diff. to pick out rims but ive decided to stick with the silver maybe go with these

My spicy has black RH with spicy lettering....looks good, I think white would be to much for the spicy but if you try it post pics
 
Well my car is currently in the garage sitting on four jack stands. Took my wheels off this afternoon hoping to drop them off to get them powdercoated white, but all the shops closed around 1 or 2 p.m. So now, I have to wait until Monday to make an appointment and drop them off. The place Im using quoted me a decent price for tire dismount, media blasting, sanding, powdercoat, remount and balance. I attempted to use aircraft stripper and then I was going to just prime and paint them white myself but it just was not working out. So Hopefully within a week my car will be sitting on a fresh set of white wheels. Stoked to see how its going to turn out!
 
This is the only Spicy I think I've seen with white wheels. Came across it on another website. And I'm undecided. I'm not a fan of the sticker bombing for one, but not too sure if I like contrast of the white with orange or not. It's different. (The more I look now, this photo looks photoshopped.)

Maybe a walkaround vid. I think it turned out great. Opinions are encouraged! let me know if you all are feeling the look or not...

Here's my spicy with bronze, purple calipers. I loved it at first. I'm slowly not liking it as much anymore. Thinking I'll go to a pearl white powdercoat on the wheels and an orange similar to the spicy on the brake calipers.
