Gunmetal rims on a silver coupe?

I'm thinking about getting gunmetal or silver rims but I can't decide. What do you guys think?

Anybody have any pics of gunmetal rims on a silver civ?

I'm thinking about either these:

I have a silver coupe with Gunmetal Volk Gram light Pros. IMO Gunmetal rims look good on a silver car.

Handsonme has a spectacular aura aboutHandsonme has a spectacular aura about
****. I don't have a digicam and therefore do not have current pics of my car.
I have an inca pearl with gunmetal rims, and I have gotten nothing but compliments on my rims.
I think gunmetal goes with any car...it's just like an "any" color. I think the same goes for alloy and chrome. Colors like white or black only look good with certain color combos.
Well, actually, one of my girlfriends didn't like it, but she's a stupid bitch. Her opinion ain't worth ****.

first one looks better than the second one...gunmetal on a silver vic would look good but i think silver rims on a silver car would look even better...

my friend has a 2000 civic and he sold his silver rims to get gunmetal/black and a cf hood to match. he hasent actually got them yet, but he thinks it will look good so i agree.
so just get the gunmetal and a cf hood and your set!

First ones look really good, but I don't think they'd look good in 17". Only 18 coz of the size of the spokes.

Cool...they all look nice. I've actually decided to go with these rims since they don't have a lip and I love the look:



I'm torn between silver and hyper black. The pic is hyper black.
