2009 R6S wheels... should I?

so I may have the opportunity to swap wheels with a 2009 R6S. Seems I know of a guy who just bought an 09 R6S and wants to black out the whole thing. so... should I go for the gold? (har har) or keep the black wheels on there?

I'm thinking the gold might look sweet.

thoughts?

What is with Yamaha making their wheels pale gold with the R6S and FZ1? They don't look that great; atleast they should have been actual gold.

Oh and I think the bronze color rims could look really nice on a red FZ with the right accents.
