Color Combo
Guys i need some help with color combo for the new rims i am getting, I have some idea in mind but i would still like to hear some opinions from you guys, cus the Brush Aluminum is something new to me ( not as traditional ). My car is brillient silver.

1) Silver + Black
2) Silver + Brush Aluminum
3) (also) Rivets or No Rivets

I am getting the exact rim in this picture in 19's, and here is a sample of the Brush Aluminum

Thnx alot guys, will appreciate any input~

yes it is, but for some reason the clear coat on the brushed finishes seem to be thinner and easier to chip. doesn't matter which brand they're from.
