I like safe Must be an age thing.
Was just thinking that grey is quite a 'classic' colour so, a 'classic' colour on your wheels might suit

Yellow on grey goes nice

+1 for Maroon

It will come down to your taste, I love dark reds and blues with greys but personally hate yellow even though I love yellow cars.
