What color wheels?

okay so I have decided to get the Ambit RE02 wheels. I cannot decide what color would go best with my dark grey metallic BRZ. I was dead set on matte black but I feel the bronze would work the best. What is your opinion of a good color choice for dark grey metallic out of all of the available colors from Ambit?

Hyper silver looks good imo. Also white.

hyper black or bronze IMHO. matte black sometimes gets lost in the shadows.

YA stay away from matt black on a black car unless you want people to think you are hovering. The bronze looks good on the black.

Yeah I think im leaning more towards hyper black or bronze. As much as I love matte black I think the car needs some contrast

I think a little color works! I'm personally a fan of some color but they keep it pretty mild with their choices. Definitely go bronze that would look great.

If I had a grey car I'd probably do something crazy like purple or blue but thats just me haha

Definitely pink... this thread is stupid. I don't know whether I'm more irritated that you can't make up your own mind, or that I took the time to post in it...

Get one, if you don't like it.. plasti-dip them another color..
