Wheel refurbishment

[Zobware]

So I have finally found a set of 5 spoke OEM wheels for my 2014 A4 - they are in very good condition but I need to get them professionally refurbished as want new looking wheels on a new car!

My question is what colour to go for on a Monsoon Grey A4? Either standard silver, gunmetal, gloss black or Matt black? Did like the ides of gunmetal but think it might be too much with the bodywork colour.

I know at the end of the day it is my personal choice but just appreciate your thoughts

Thanks

Makes a huge difference what style the new wheels are...
IMO you can't beat OE but each to their own

Apologies for adding this late posting but, while we are talking about alloys wheel refurbishment, does anyone have a firm view on whither getting alloy wheels re-painted and lacquered - as original, or powder coated is the best way to go when refurbishing them?

I got a set of 18" five spokes powder coated for use with winter tyres, but when I eventually need to get my 19" seven double spokes refurbished, I think that I'll stick with a paint and lacquer finish, I'm just curious to get all the pros and cons aired for my and others benefit.

I've powder coated a decent amount of wheels for people and they do seem to stay nicer for longer. Wet paint covers corrosion better though
