I think dark wheels on a silver car look good.
If you don't like black I'd say mercury grey would look spot on.

Shadow chrome can look nice too

Dark grey/anthracite on a silver classic always looks good.

Anthracite seems to mean different things to different garages (either dark grey or mid grey!).

Are RB320 wheels anthracite?

And is "gun metal" darker than anthracite?
