need help on a decision..

So im debating whether to paint the stock 5 spoke rims on my pearl silver gs-t
Choices are gunmetal, matte black, or just left as is. What do you guys think?
Also if anyone has painted their rims one of these colors please post a pic so i can see. thanks

I have my 5-spoke rims painted black with the polished lip on them.

Here's a pic, they are EXTREMELY dirty right now, but you get the idea.
