Wheel decision - Your opinion please

UPDATE: Made my decision. Pictures in post #33

I know mesh wheels aren't for everyone, but these are what I like. I really just want opinions on the color. Two choices, silver or a really dark gunmetal. Help me decide.

These







or these





on this






I'm leaning towards the silver. I don't know...

I'm no help because I like them both. The dark goes well with the tint and would look good in contrast with the lighter paint. On the flip side silver is clean and would blend well. So would you rather have it blend or contrast is an other way to look at it I guess.

It is a darker silver so that's why I'm leaning towards those.

On a darker car I deffinately like the lighter color rim. So my vote is for silver.
