i have sunlit sand on 19" konig theories. the finish is called opal silver, but it's pretty much gunmetal.
here's pics, although they don't do the rims justice, they're much better looking in person:

I like those Gunmetal. Not sure if I have ever seen any Bronze wheels. Do you know any brands that make a bronze wheel off the top of your head?

i'm not so sure about bronze. i also think the silver lip with gunmetal looks nicer than just gunmetal. even if you go with flat black rims i'd look for ones with a silver lip, otherwise they end up just looking like steel wheels.
