Hello all hope you’re all doing well!

I’m looking to do some tidying up of my alloys and was hoping I could get some opinions on colours to match my Nimbus 200.

Currently it’s Nimbus with anthracite mirrors/rear diffuser and front bumper with Anthracite on the alloys to.

Some pictures to help get an idea the one with the white Clio is generic google but close up of the same alloys.

Colours I’m debating;

Darker Anthracite
Black
Dark Gold (Think generic Subaru I guess?)
Or a bronze.

Any opinions would be great, Also if anyone’s decent with photoshop maybe some edits?

Hope you’re all doing well!

From what I've seen it does not mater what colour you pick for the wheels it is decided by whoever is painting them as a lot powder coat so the colours are limited I've been trying to paint wheels standard Renault Anthricite for 197 and Renault silver but there is a sparkle in the finish and the 4 or 5 people I have approached cant match either so I have been buying brand new alloys and not a huge fan of black alloys they always look dirty to me matt or gloss. I do like the LUX/Gordini style as the colour is limited and not sure how long the diamond cut will last in black and anthracite good choice if you have kerbed wheels. Although your cup wheel style I have only ever seen them standard colours.

Diamond cut speed lines actually don’t look to shabby at all. Especially with the white!
 
A different "cut" that doesn't looks to shabby either.

About the original question. I vote for black.
