Advice: Brushed/Copper or Copper/Polished or Black/Copper

I'm ordering a set of 360 Forged Mesh 8s. I have a Jet Black on Saddle Brown E92 335i, so I'm including copper in the color scheme to pick up the interior. Options:

Brushed center disc with copper lip
Copper center disc with polished lip
Black center disc with copper lip

Advice would be appreciated, and pictures/photoshops of these color schemes, if you have them.

What would you guys do?

I'm not considering copper with a black lip; black outsides eat the tires and make them look like donuts.

This is 360 Forged's copper finish:
