Default Burgundy body, gunmetal wheels?

Would gunmetal wheels match on a burgundy car?

In my head it looks like it does, but has anyone used this color combo?

Any pics or photoshop would rock. Thanks all!

I've been wondering about this too for my MMM Camaro. From what I have been able to find, they look great. But personally, glossy charcoal looks MUCH better.

anyone else? I'm liking it so far! I originally wanted to just use SS 10 spokes in light silver, but I realize the light color rims STICK OUT a lot on the dark cars. I saw the new gunmetal ZR1's around and I'm starting to like them more.
