Orange would be pretty sick, if I had a black car I would go with orange or red, but as mentioned, you'd need some orange on the car as well so definitely rocker stripes or the Carrera script at a minimum. You cannot go wrong with anthracite though!

Honestly, I like them all and from my own experience i've had black wheels on my black boosted mazdaspeed protege and it looked mean but just a warning the spoke detail disappears until you are close by the car.
I decided to change the black so I painted my gram lights 57 optimise satin white. Loved the look.
My 993 C2 is black and im currently painting my AG-CUP spokes a real trick satin black using premium dupont paint. The wheels are mirror polished deep dish which I will be etching to achieve a brushed finish. My rivets will be replaced with zinc plated ones to add more pop. Plus i'm painting my black calipers metallic gold to help contrast against the black spokes.
My vote still is black first than anthracite but not crazy about construction orange, perhaps if they were you're race wheels like bill verburg's which look sweet. For the black OZs, perhaps add a red "time attack" lip and red calipers to break up the black. Try white on tirerack, you might be surprised! GL man, subbed for future pictures

The orange is very reminiscent of the color combo on my old 997 GT3RS which was black with orange. Great on an RS but honestly not for a 993. I would go anthracite....
