Posting pic would help us giving you the answer you're looking for, there's a major difference between tan and gray....

Honestly, that color you refer to is one of the most civilian colors for the G, Desert Platinum.
With that said, a high contrast wheel like black or dark grey could look bad ****. Think Guinness.
If you go grey, make it a warm grey as apposed to a cool color, since the exterrior of your car is a warm color. IMHO

Some of the very best sedans over the years have had the centers of their wheels P/Cd body color and left the lips polished....that's a very classy look. Check our GALLERY and a few members garages for ideas....

Pretty much any color will look fine, as long as you buy a nice set of rims. I'd go with a graphite gray color personally.
