Default Y-49 CRX wheel color

Ok, for all of you that dont already know, a y-49 is a CRX in the factory barbados yellow color. Kinda rare.

My question is this, do you guys have any pics of yellow cars with various color wheels on them? I'm thinking about painting my 15" TSW Blades, but cant think of a color that would look decent on a yellow CRX.

I'm thinking maybe Black, gunmetal, or silver, or maybe gunmetal with a silver lip. I'm thinking that bronze would look kinda poopy.

Any pics. appreciated

I'm leaning more towards gunmetal, I think bronze would look funny
I'm curious to see how the bronze would look though so if theres any pics. floating around (doesn't have to be a CRX) Let me know

Black on yellow is very very nice.

Forget white, red, green, bronze would be OK, etc.

BLack or darkgunmetal would be very good.

stock blade color is alright, too...
