I did think that but then is it too much green, I am now thinking Grey or Black.

Gold wheels only work with darker colours!
Although red does work as well, but definitely NOT with silver!

i think it would suit it if you got all the trim colour coded silver.

personally id go black wheels and paint the trim black, works really well with silver cars

Thinking of black but if I do it will be gloss as I plan on repainting all the brakes etc so they will then really stand out.

I would go for an anthricite grey, when there done gloss black imo the tyres always look grey and old unless you coat them with tyre gloss every 2 days.
