I say no. If you want to draw that color down to your wheels, I'd suggest getting some nice BBKs with calipers custom painted LeMans or custom coating your lugs LeMans.

Matching the wheel color to the main paint color is never a good idea.

You want orange wheels? Youll go from having a nicely modded 350 to being the happy meal ride.
