Default Help with new color on my stock Sport Cross rims

Hi everyone,
I have decided to get my winter rims a new color. They are in pretty bad shape right now which is the reason to my decision.
But what color would be good to my Sport Cross?
First I were thinking of a medium dark grey metallic, but there is so many other good ones
I am not so much of a fan of black rums, it already has the same rims for the summer in black metallic..
It is those 5 spoke 17" stock rims

Also considered this color, but is that good to my silver car?

I would do Anthracite since you like the dark grey metallic color.

Yeah, it was something like that I was thinkin' about.. Has also in mind to paint it deep black and the outermost on the spokes some kind of gold, maybe same color as the BMW has.

Medium dark grey metallic looks nice on our color. Here's what I did a while back to my Ltuned wheels. Painted them gunmetal. But I kept the inner part silver.....

Do what you like though! Don't go by what the trend is. =)
