That is where gunmetal works for me. Doesn't jump out and scream "look at me" but you can tell they are there.

I have always thought the OEM wheels to be better as a single color. Instead of looking like two sets of 5 spoke wheels on top of each other, they look like multispoke wheels. Then again I find that EVERY wheel which combines a polished section with machining to look cheap and classless. I don't think they stand the test of time.
