Sedona with gunmetal or silver wheels?

I've trying to decide on some new wheels and I'm stuck between gunmetal and silver on a Sedona 1er. I'm digging gunmetal and it might go well with the shadowline trim, but it might be too much with that color combo.

What do you guys think?

EDIT: Here are some samples. I chose Silver Breytons and gunmetal Elkeis from Tire Rack for comparison, since they're relatively similar. (Let me know if that's ok Gill, tried to leave all the Tire Rack info in there. I'll take down if needed).

You're fine, no worries.

I have silver summer wheels and anthracite/gunmetal wheels for the winter. I love them both for differnent reasons. I like them both and don't think either is "too much."

The gunmetal really needs tinted windows, IMO. Silver works with anything. That's only my opinion.
