Be different by having two 'grays' that don't match. Going with either shade (white or black) will go with any color. In certain light, gg looks brown. I'm not a big fan of brown and gray together.

Personally, I think a grey car with slightly lighter grey wheels looks awkward.

Seriously! This is a tech forum.

Either color won't look good, I say get used and powder coat.

There much better OEM wheels to choose from and If I'm not mistaken people have had to run a spacer to use FD2 wheels.

I can get you a used set in either color in excellent condition for $1800 shipped
