Idk it's up to you really. I would go with glossy black since there is more of a contrast. I would save up for some aftermarkets in gold if i were you.

Silver


I reall don't like black wheels at all. Any details of the rim just gets lost and it looks like a big void.

I know the latest trend is painting/powdercoating rims black, but i really don't think it looks appealing at all. I'd rather have a silver wheel, or a lighter shade of gunmetal vs all-black, gloss or flat.

I know a lot of guys disagree, but i prefer the silver hypercoated finish that a lot of the OEM wheels are over aftermarket colors (there are some exceptions though)

Well adjustable coilovers would have solved your problem.

Anything but sliver. Too bright and doesn't match anything on the car.

I have flat black on an IP sedan. But I didn't like the wheels fading into the tires so I put a white pinstripe around the edge of the rim.

Bronze would look good, but would clash with the silver trim on your car. Decisions, decisions!!

^Unless of course you were to black the window trim, bodymatch the door handles, debadge, flat-black the grill and headlight housings... then your golden for bronze (see what I did there... )
