Getting Rota Slipstream PICS/POLL

My friend is selling me his rotas. They are just alloy slipstreams. I'm not really into the alloy color soo...I need everyone's opinion on what would look good w/ my car (ssm coupe). I'm going to powdercoat them when I get them.
My Top 5 Choices:
1. Flat Gunmetal
2. Steel Gray
3. Gun Metallic w/ polished lip
4. Black
5. Sports Bronze
p.s. I'm in a repping mood!!

Hmm, I think the gunmetal with the lip will look nice. I also like bronze but I dont know if it will look good with ssm.

i seriously hope you're just joking
i would much rather put on a spoon sticker on my car than do that.
im really feeling the dark grey steel color...maybe a little bit darker though.

simplicated1979:
im getting these w/ tires for a huge deal---considering that i've been best friends w/ this guy since we were 2---so $600 is a rip off to me. hmm--but maybe i'll sell them and buy better ones...hmm idea

i really appreciate everyone's help..
im about to post in the photoshop forum to see if someone could let me see what my car is gonna look like in a little while!

Black looks sick, or even gunmetal with a polished lip.

What size are they? If they are 17 or bigger I'd get something with a polished lip. If they are any smaller I'd go with flat gunmetal.
