What color rally rims should I get?

OK most of you know I have 14 inch rallys on my Delta, I bought it that way. Well after checkout out the local Craigslist this week I scored 4 15 x 7, 5 x 4.75 rallys

2 are done up really nice, a dark gray and the other 2 are in need of work, one's either black or very dark green, and the other is redish. I'm probably going to get all 4 powercoated.

Relax, nothing outrageous, I'm either going to get "Mirror Black", "Dark Grey (Battleship is the color's name) Gold like the early leaded motors, or Super gloss clear (which is chrome)

I don't know if I want the chrome. Black would match the car, and dark grey would look good, but will it flow? Gold? Many years down the road, I'm thinking of getting a 1985 442 stlye paint job on it and the gold would work also if I keep the 1/4 landu roof on it

The grey ones had all new rings and inserts. The rings on the other 2 are a bit scuffed and the rings are OK. I'll probably get them powercaoted too, in the clear of course.

Not bad for getting 5 rims for $150 ( I got one 14 x 7 inch black rim too )
