Seeking advice on wheel color

I am thinking of having my winter wheels painted to change up the look a bit. They are the OEM 408m set. Basically a split 5 spoke design in the typical silver BMW paint.

My thought was to do one of the following:

Paint them Lamborghini gray.

Paint them gloss black.

Paint them satin black.


My car is alpine white with all trim and exhaust in gloss black.


If you click on the link below the guy I am going to have paint them has some examples of colors. The gallery has the black and gray colors featured. Note the black GT3 wheel and the gray E60 M5 wheel. Those are the colors I am deciding between.

Any advice (or comments) appreciated!

Thanks,

Matt

what about 'Hyper' Black which is like black chrome (not sure if this is painted or powder coated)

On the most left, it's gunmetal

I would match them to the trim pieces of the car. If you have gloss black trim pieces (gills grills window trim etc..) I would have the rims painted to match.
