this depends. if your going for a black look, then black rims. but a bright silver finish would look great also. like said. check the stickey, theres a lot of black cars...with black rims/silver rims. anything!

if u want classy, go brushed alum. if u want aggressive sporty, then go black. if i were u id have black rims and my grille blacked out. sometimes i smack myself for getting a white one, but i love not having to clean it so much .
