Slim, if you want you can bring your car by sometime and put the wheels on or upto your car to see if you like the dark wheels on silver. they are just sitting inthe garage until the snow flys

I think those wheel look better in gunmetal than factory silver, I haven't seen a color they didn't look great on.
