Was in the same position last year on this - silver wheels on velvet red body just stood out way too much. Needed wheels of a contrast similar to that of the body so as not to distract (see the wheels before you see the car). Had some old metallic grey wheels I found on ebay years ago and just tried these on. Neighbor noticed the change straightaway and said the car looked more 'complete' and 'purposeful'. Refurbed the wheels and powder coated in Anthracite grey. Now same colour contrast as rest of body, love the whole look.
Black bodywork? Bronze/dark gold would be my choice. Or could go the other way - dark grey? Orange would need tying in with something else (i.e. calipers, decals or other same colour highlights).

Streetdaddy, don’t worry about the Cup 1s in the pic above, OP mentioned he had a set of Cup 2s he wanted to play with. I like the caliper color idea.
OP, love that set up in the pic! Says, here is a man of many talents, and he’s using this car for everything. Mega!

Doesn’t the silver wheel look so much bigger being lighter, even though it is further away in the photo.
