I agree with acko, anthracite works really well on silver cars.

I think gold looks best (not a chav thing) - if you're going to go for silver wheels, you might as well go the whole distance and get a Mondeo!

Surely the Gold on a blue scooby can not be classified as a Chav's choice. They are more like a cavalier with gold spray painted rims.
(The owner of a blue classic with gold rims if you hadnt already guessed)

Silver
Silver gets my vote. The gold only works with WR blue or black cars in my opinion.

The gold wheels just dont seem to blend in with the silver like all the other colours.
Silver would be my choice, but the choice is yours..

And apart from the rear lights, which im not 100% sure off myself, how could you tell that its not an STI?

Gold Gold Gold!! An inebriated young lady once told me ( when I had silver wheels ) ..if you've got a scoobie, its got to have gold wheels! Now I couldn't agree more. Silver wheels are humdrum. We are the Kings and Queens of tackiness!

I would go for Silver, don't like gold on silver cars at all.
Antracite is also a good option, although I would not go as dark as the chap did on reply number 2 did.
