Default Wheel Color Opinions for Speed Yellow 6GT3

my new to me speed yellow 6gt3's original wheels have some scuffs. i picked up a second set of clean but center painted red oem gt3 wheels at the hershey swap meet this weekend and i want to powder coat them.
does anyone have a speed yellow 3 with either black, graphite, black chrome, gun metal grey or similar color wheels that could post up some pics?

Default Satin black is nice

Satin black for street, any color for track.

If you never want to wash the wheels: Black.
I've never warmed up to black wheels. I'm OG/OS. Wheels are the jewelry on any car.

thanks for the input. i'm leaning towards black (satin or gloss) or black chrome. maybe with some other black accent to tie it all together.

it's all going to boil down to personal preference. Personally I don't care for black wheels at all, ironically one of my 3 sets of wheels for the car are black though (because they're mismatched and I tried to hide it )



I much prefer silver. I think the gray would be a good medium too so I wouldn't have to worry about what they look like covered in brake dust all the time :-)
