Rim color selectoin help.....

Gents,

I'm going to buy the FORGESTAR F14'S x 19ins for my 1er (SPACE GREY). I'm at a loss for the color on the rims. I know black and matte black are very popular options, but i'm i would lilke go a different way than everybody else. I would like to do this with our serving any misjustice to the car.

I'm leaning towards matte gold, but i'm not sure, i think its too much..

Thank you all for you help.

Black is common on this site, not so much in person. I'd go gloss black. Hope you go gold though, I'd love to see that!
