Definitely not gold.
Silver will look best on your van.

Black is subtle and gloss/satin is easy to keep clean, its down to personal choice though dude. Dont see many white granada wheels though so would be rarer and match your roofage.

HAs anyone been brave enough to take them back to steel then just lacquer?
Hammerite smooth silver brush on with roller and brush and aerosol lacquer is getting ready for mine.

Some rough and ready chopping of your photo gives an idea:
I reckon white looks good

Now you've got me thinking.
At the moment mine are Boy Racer Satan Black (rattle can)
But the bus is being resprayed in Toffee Brown Metallic like this (I can't photoshop):

with a cream/old English White roof.
I think white wheels may be the way to go.
