Poll: Painting my winter wheels

Just got a set of stockers to put on for winter. I'll be getting gold or bronze 17's in the spring.

Colors I am indecisive about are gold, bronze, or white. I was leaning towards white, since i'll be doing the whole brone/gold thing in the spring... but idk.. help!

I've painted rims on my last 2 cars gunmetal, so Im bored with that. And I think black is done too often, and also fairly boring on a white car. And you rarely rarely see the oem rims painted white, gold, or bronze on white s2000's.

I am getting a hardtop also, not sure if itll be white or black, but I was trying to keep that in mind when I was deciding on rim color. And another thing, this isnt my car, i dont pick up the stockers til saturday so I cant photoshop my car with them. One of the big differences on my car from the one in the pic is my headlights have clear corners instead of amber, so the rim color wouldnt clash.

Quick Photoshop for the colors:

Option #1: Gold


Option #2: Bronze


Option #3: White- looks way too bright, but it was hard for me to make it look realistic w/o it being bright since I suck at photoshop lol
