Painting '87 IROC-Z wheels

I just got that wild hair....

I've gotta paint my IROC rims tomorrow. At present, they're the '85-'87 IROC 16" wheels with GOLD inserts... YUCK.

I want to paint the gold a different color. Either BLACK or GUNMETAL/DARK GRAY

What would look better on a dark red/maroon exterior?

Also, anyone have any pics?

I'd go with the gunmetal or possibly a shade lighter metallic. I judt don;t think the black would do the rims or your car justice. I painted my rims black, but that is on a white IROC so the contrast was great.
