I'm not sure about gun metal with winning blue, so my vote would go with the 3rd one.

I'm not a big fan of any of those (I prefer 5 to 7 spokes max).
That said, I think the second choice would look nice.

Well, since we've had a vote for number 2 and a vote for number 3, just to further confuse things I'll vote for number 1. Seriously, of these three choices, I like that one best. But as others have said, I'm not sure how it'll look on a Winning Blue car. Think it might look better on a Sunlight Silver. But that's just me.

Gun metal should look fine on the winning blue. Of your choices, I'd say #1. Check out the Motegi wheels, they got some nice gun metal wheels. Here's an example (notice the blue capped lugs). Some would say it might look "ricey," but they actually look really good.

I vote for #1. But if you get rims that are that open you should paint your calpers.
