What color to do on OEM 19's???

Ok guys after doing extensive research on this forum i have found many threads on painting your own wheels/rims. I have seen black and gunmetal coming out the best in my opinion. I am just having a horrible time picking between colors and what would look best on an OB coupe ! I will be blacking out my front Grille gloss black and leaving the Fuji Chrome, smoked out front lights and smoked out tails. They will be bats overlays 6/10's front and back. So the question is Graphite Duplicolor like Express or like Vodkarocket go gloss black engine paint OR Leave them stock color..... I want to pwdercoat them in the future, but for now WHICH ONE DO I DO!!!!!!! Help guys please ^_^. Here are the threads
Vodkas https://g35driver.com/forums/body-interior-exterior-lighting-diy/140421-budget-modding-101-diy-photoshoot-inside-painting-oem-wheels.html
Express https://g35driver.com/forums/body-interior-exterior-lighting-diy/203853-diy-refinishing-your-rims.html

Thanks guys!!!
