Default What does "anthacite" look like?

I know the Kosei K-1s (the wheels I want) are offered in this finish, and I don't want to buy white K1s and paint them black as my car will look identical to KK's car. Anyone know? is it like Gunmetal?

edit - it's "anthracite" I spelled it wrong in the title.

White wheels on a yellow ITR looks AWESOME IMO. Very JDM ish. Anthracite is gun metal.

I know a lot of people think that way, and JDM PY cars do come with those white 16". I just don't think it looks very good, I think even CW ITRs look better with GM wheels. Dan, have you ever seen the K1s in anthracite? BTW if it was you who fixed the spelling of "anthracite" in the title -

I know you said you didn't want to paint them flat black-- but I just saw a PY ITR in the U district that had K1s painted flat black, and it looked bad ***. Much cooler than white in my opinion.

I haven't seen the anthracite K1s in person, but in close up pictures they look like gunmetal with a slight greenish tinge.
