Default White Wheels: What Color of White?

I've got Halibrand Cobra III wheels that simulate the look of true knock off wheels.

Anyway, they have gray-painted centers and I've been running knock-off spinners for the last couple of years. Anyway, they're not real knock offs and I don't want to pretend that they are. So I'm pulling the spinners off and am going to have the gray-painted centers painted white.

My question: What color white should the centers be painted?

The shop doing the work, including fixing a couple of deep scratches in one of the wheels, has a paint chip chart with several different colors of white. I picked out the brightest white that they had but now I'm not so sure that's the color that I should go with. Should the centers be a bright white or more of a subdued, creamier white?

Pics and advice appreciated.
