Flint Mica wheels

Tired of having stock wheels...thinking about upgrading wheels. Would Black wheels look odd on a Flint Mica TC? Or should I stick with silver..need input please..these will stay 17"

Black, Anthracite, or Gunmetal are pretty popular. It usually helps to have something with a polished lip though. Makes the wheel stand out a little and separates it from the car.

Bronze, but I'm not biased or anything

I originally wanted gunmetal, but also wanted a little contrast between the wheels and car so I went bronze.
