I really like your wheels, however the finish you choose will make all the difference in the world. I couldn't stand the original color of the ADV10s my buddy bought (black centers, brushed lips... they looked too "hoopty" to me), so I test painted the centers/lips with Krylon in different colors to help him visualize the different options. The wheels took on a completely different personality with each color combination we tried.
He tends to be more classic and conservative, so he made the final decision to powder coat the centers in OEM silver and brush the lips... If they were going on mine, I would have done Gunmetal centers and Gunmetal lips (my truck is space gray, his X5M is white). Gunmetal seems to go well with every color.
