Yes anthracite is a grey. I would like to add some contrast but I don't know if black will look good. Here is a sample pic of the wheel.

I must be getting old. I think blue is a little to much for me. What do you think about black?

Black will also be very nice with anthracite. Nice subtle contrast. You can get those lugs/locks in black as well I think. (red, blue or black).

i would just go with chrome!

my best friend with SC 430 has brushed aluminum on his car and he has an akward color.
its midnight green and it looks good with chrome lugnuts on brushe aluminum face.

Yeah I would say chrome too. Can't go wrong with chrome on brushed face IMO. Are there gonna be any other accent colors to the wheels that you might want to enhance with the lugs or are they primarily brushed/chrome?
