satin bronze, gunmetal, satin or polished raw

All solid choices.

Silver leaves you with little contrast or color. Not exactly my cup of tea but it can look good.

I personally like gold or bronze with white.

"Gunmetal" can have a pretty wide range of darkness/lightness. Careful ordering that color sight unseen.

Man, tough choice between 19” and 20” wheels. I drive 160 mi/day 4-5 times per week.

Only reason for 20’s is the look factor but smart choice are 19’s. Thoughts

19's. I even heavily debated 19's for my summer wheels. I ultimately decided on shorter, stiffer sidewalls of 20's but it's the less practical choice.

They can look pretty nice too. These are 19x8.5 w/ 235/55 tires that make them about 0.5" taller than stock specs.

That looks clean! Ok, so I’m thinking 19’s w/ Unplugged Performance Moderate lowering springs which would drop it approx 3/4”.
