E92 Silverstone Wheel Color Dilemma

All -

Dilemma here and I can't find an answer. Thinking about a set of Volk wheels for my e92 m3 dual duty car. I run the track on Apex wheels but need a new set of street wheels to clear my stoptech BBK. Was looking for something different. Need advice, do you think this could work (using random stock images)

I think that'll look badass. Gunmetal with just enough blue to set off the blue in silver stone.

My thoughts....but was worried it would look too "fast and the furious" or worse like a matchbox car.....

Its hard to imagine them together but I think i am going to pull for the trigger and hope for the best.

I think the Diamond dark gunmetal ZE40s would look awesome on your car.

Here they are on my Z4MC (sorry its white but ....)

I have always loved oem type silver on my silverstone e90.

i have a set of work equips being refinished, decided to go with an e46 color for the faces (titan silver) fully polished lips + barrels.
