Default What color should I paint HX wheels on DAP EK?

I have a Dark Amethyst Pearl (Dark Purple) EK hatch. I'm not sure what color to paint these HX rims I got. I need everyone's opinion.

I'm open to suggestions such as "so and so" with polished lip or whatever.

Thanks in advance.

I suggest reporting this and having it moved to App/Cosmetic.

Yellow

Nah, IDK what would look good with DAP. Hard to imagine... But there's a DAP hatch with stock color HXs and it looks pretty good.

well the original paint and stuff is already stripped, so its that semi-polished alloy look, does that look good?
