Flint Mica with... what color?

I was wondering if I could get some opinions on what looks best with flint mica. I'm thinking about getting Rota Subzero's, just haven't decided on color yet.

The flakes in Flint are going to make pretty much any color rims look good. granted there are some expections. but the most popular are gunmetal, black and bronze. some have spoke about paint match but i haven't seen it done. i haven't seen anyone do gold either on a Flint.

I would say bronze or hyper black. Silver just doesn't look right on an fm.

I personally do not like gold/bronze on a FM.
Some disagree, but that's my take.
Silver or GM.
Here's my HP EVOs

To those that say gold doesn't look good...you might want to change your mind.

Apparently it isn't obvious from my avatar and color strip under it, but I don't own a FM.

That's semaJames' tC. You're going to have to ask him though because I don't know what his suspension setup is and his profile doesn't say.
