Bronze on a Fiji blue?

Well guys, i've been at this for a while now and im still debating on what rims to get for my fiji blue si. I was going to buy some 10 spoke gloss black with crome lip 17s that weigh about 23lbs. but im searching into some bronze wheels.

What do you guys think will look better? These are the ones i can afford right now.




With that said would all my fellow fiji blue Sis post your rim setups so i can have a good idea of what i should get. Thanks

You're wheels look more like gunmetal then bronze.
