Default Wheel colour

While i'm on holiday my mate is detailing my car and repainting
the wheels.There is no damage on the wheels but they are starting
to look their age.It's a 2005 sti PPP with pro drive wheels 7 spokes
original colour.The car is the silver/gold colour, what do you reckon ?.
Thinking of going darker,some pics and thoughts would be nice.

Want it to be looking nice for the show in July.

Cheers

I think Satin or gloss black on a silver car mate. I have had 3 different colours of wheel on my car, but my car is blue. But always come back to the gold.

Thanks for the reply.You certainly like your graphics.Car looks great by the way.
Any pics of a silver scooby as i don't think the gold would go with my car colour.
Don't know whether to keep them original,go darker or lighter.
Cheers.
