Default Help me pick a color and wheel combo

I'm waffling between a silver or slightly darker color vs a medium to med/dark silver-charcoal. I am pretty sure the 10 spoke wheels will come in the future, but for now will stick with the 5 spoke old school look until I save up enough for the new wheels/tires.

These are my newest renderings from Carter Hickman. I have two each in silver and a darker color, and each color has both sets of wheels. Which do you like? Or do they all suck??!!!

I want to add that working with Carter has been awesome. I am constantly asking for changes and he just keeps on delivering.

I've always been a silver fan, plus I like the contrast of the silver with the charcoal wheels... I voted #1.

I went with #3 but, #1 was my second choice.
I'm just tired of seeing those played out TT2 wheels on every other car & truck.

I was between 1 and 3 as well but I preferred the contrast of 1. I usually like the wheels to be either high contrast or an exact match for the color. If they are only slightly different sometimes they may look like they are just a bad color match. I really like that dark gray though, maybe satin black wheels would look better, I dunno.

Jody, what happened to the parchment color/sleeper look? Not that I don't like this but that was a really unique look for the car. I probably missed a discussion about this somewhere.
