Default AEV Pintlers with Deep Water Blue Pearl JKU-Help me Decide Please

Hey guys. I have a 2010 sport jku in Deep Water Blue Pearl-totally stock. I'm looking at getting new rims at some point and really like the Pintlers. What do you guys think, black or argent? The blue looks good with lighter colored wheels as well as the black. I know this sounds crazy, but I don't want to shit can the 17 inch SRA's just yet. Will they look ridiculous on the Pintlers? I'll upgrade the tires when the SRA's wear out. What do you guys think? Give it to me straight, I've got thick skin. .. Thanks.

definately the argents. The deep water with argent wheels is my favorite JK combo, closely followed by the dark charcoal/argent combo. Here are some pics of my old 2010, silver with argent pintlers and stock tires. This was after I ahd stripped my lift and 35s off to sell her. One extra of what she did look like...

I have Mickey Thomson Signature Series on mine so I can tell you black rims look good with the Deap Water Blue. That said, I'm not crazy about the Pintlers in black. I like the Argents better.

So fare it looks like the Argents!!! I love black wheels, but again, I'm not sure about them on the blue pearl. Anyone got black pintlers on a dwbp? If so, I'd love to see them. Again, what do ya'll think about running the 32 inch SRA's on Pintlers? Will they look silly? Anyone have such a set up? I can't justify new tires as well, as long as the SRA's have plenty of tread (only about 17000 miles since I picked her up from the dealer, Manfredi Staten Island...no complaints...good dealership). Any other thoughts???

Agreed. That is the one I was thinking of when I posted!
