Both Bronze and Gunmetal end up looking dark on a Yellow FD and honestly kind of hard for me to tell apart in pics sometimes.
Some Bronze like Volk anodize finish have a bit of green in the color which weird with the Yellow car I.M.O.
I like the more Brown Bronzes like Work's darker Bronze on a Yellow FD more and I usually don't like the Brown Bronze colors.

I think dark wheels on Yellow FD is a good look though.
Here are some Yellow FD with Bronze wheels I found in Google search.

vv This shows the Green in the Volk anodize Bronze finish

vv This shows the Work Wheels Brownish Bronze

^^ maybe even some Greenish in the Work Wheels anodize lighter Bronze finish.

^^ Looks like Duplicolor wheel paint Bronze (very Brown), but still looks good to me on Yellow FD.

^^ These are Gunmetal. I can't really tell in the pic as they pull in the surrounding Yellow and look more Bronze to me. But they look good!

thank you for the very helpful reply
I am between first photo and last re amemiya if the last photo is gun metal then probably I choose gun metal
In my country I can not see it live only after payment the dealer will order the wheels so I have to be 100% sure.
