Could try out a hyper or bright silver color too, white's long lost cousin. Might go better against the SSM. I like trying to pick up accents of the car in the color of the wheels.

OH!!! I forgot about smoked chrome -or- Hyper-black (same thing). That would look pretty sick too.

Gun metal will look great with a CF hood and black headlights. Rota makes some sweet wheels that come in gunmetal.

gunmetal on ssm looks perfect if you ask me. gold= big no no. not a big fan of white either.
my car with gunmetal/machined drag dr21's. stock tires gf210 springs.

another angle. +40 ofsett. want to put red lugs and emblems still.

my cousins gold dr16's 205/50 tire. soo glad i didn't go with gold. lol

looks pretty good. I almost went with bronze heliums, but they were out of stock through my distributor. so I got the dr21's instead.

Silver/Black like you have as an example looks great. Something with an accent of blue looks good on silver too. Gunmetal, Charcoal both work. I like a lighter face trimmed in black.

White doesn't work on silver. Orange....NOT!

Check out this silver fit: Honda-Tech.com: Honda Fit: Weds SA70 on Fit

I think you could image them as Gunmetal or bronze. I had wondered the same before getting the Weds Sport SA70's in the BLC(?) finish. They are black chrome with a inner blue circle behind the spokes. I got mine from Nengun in Japan. Lots of $$ in freight. Ben at AJ Racing should be able to get them as well.
