Default Color suggestion on RH Pro J8

Looking for some opinion in what color scheme of wheels suits better on my Daytona Blue Z. I already selected that the wheels I want are the " RH PRO J8 ". My dilemma is in the color, I can seem to made my mind in what color will look the best in my Z between "Machined Silver", "Gold" or "Super Black Coated (SBC)". This are pictures of the colors that I feel I like the most and What you guys think is the best color for my Z. Click in this link to see pictures of the SBC on Super Black Z.

You should go with the gold, it's not something you see everyday.

I did, hehe:

Thanks Guys for the replies. SBC color was my first choice for this wheels but I wasn't sure how well they will sit on a Daytona Blue Z.

You guys are killing me . Now, I'm filling again that I don't know what to do. I always found the gold color to be pretty unique and attractive specially if you match the wheels with a PPW. That combination is a killer on PPW but I don't know if it will look good on a DB. I guess there is no way of knowing for sure other than taking the plunge and hope for the best.

If you want to be "SAFE," then go with silver or Gunmetal. But as you can see by manofsteele2003's DB... gold looks awesome on DB!

your car looks very nice synth19. Those lip in your wheels are awesome, what are the specs on your wheels? if you don't mind asking. I think, I'm going to take the plunge for the "Gold" wheels, Life is not exciting at all with out risk.

oh, and they are a b!tch to clean.. I suggest you get new brake pads for street use and change them when you change your wheels.

Trust me the gold will look awesome. When I odered them everybody was skeptical, that's until they saw them on the car. I get people staring at my car all the time.

i would go with SBC, then silver, then gold as well. Blue and gold is more of a subaru thing than a Z thing IMO.
