Anthracite does go well with blue then again so does gold, either way it should still look pretty good

Depends if anything else is Black or Gold on ur car .. go for what u want..
Anthracite is smart with WR Blue (got that on mine ) esp if u have smoked repeaters or tints.. but the Gold is really smart esp if u have gold Brembos or anything else yellow/gold like stickers.
My opinion? Has to be Gold on an STi as that's what STis come with

I have the same car but in black.

My Gold alloys will be going when I go to 18s for Gunmetal grey. provided I find some alloys that actually fit over the brembos.

Gold is nice but doesn't really fill the wheel arches nicely IMO

Dark wheels on an STi contrast well with the gold Brembos.

...I had gold on my Black STi, but couldn't get on with Gold on my blue one...

White is another option of course

Enjoy...

Gun metal looks best with Blue.

Black is too dark for blue IMO and gold is....................... Gay

Just kidding about. I prefer Grey but Gold is ok
