Red face Rim color choice? Help?

I know, these threads are spreading like AIDS, but if I'm gonna be spending almost a grand, I'd like to see some other opinions to put together a good choice. I've decided to get 5Zigen FN01R-C's(I know, they are getting pretty popular). I really like the 5 spoke design and they aren't expensive. I'm also getting them with Falken Azeni Rt615 tires. That much I've narrowed down, now its to the tough part...what color to get. ritz just ordered a set in dust black, so I'd like to stay away from those. I was thinking about either Anodized Silver or Bronze.

Anodized Silver:


Bronze:


And Flat Black:


I'm getting them in 15x7.

My Integra is/will be Frost White, here's a picture for reference:

This pic is before the JDM front, but since all pictures of that are multicolored, I figured this would be a better pic to use.

I'm leaning towards the Silver ones because everyone seems to be doing bronze or black on white cars.

God I wish they had that color. This thread would be non-exsistant, and those rims would be on my car. I've been thinking about getting the silver ones, just to polish the lip and powdercoat the wheel down the road.

They do, I just don't like them. Zeropsi has them on his Coupe. I don't like how they are polished on the inside where the lugs are.
