Those fill up the wheel wells nicely! That concave body line really eats up clearance for rear tires but those 245s look perfect in there.
Its amazing how much a set of wheels & tires impact the look (and feel) of a car.
In my opinion (which, with about $5 will get you a coffee & donut), a body coloured, double-line pinstripe around the gray wheel would tie it together perfectly...

While I do like body colour steel wheels and will likely go blue, this grey colour strangely give it a nostalgic bent in my mind. I don't know why, but it just does.

I would go with Silver Argent. Maybe a blue pinstripe around the outer lip of the rim
Before you paint them use steel alpha numeric punch set and place a key word etc on the inner/outer portion of the rim with photo of code so the code can be seen with the tire on the rim.
If they disappear some night you have proof if they are ever turned up.
'64 Parisienne CS "barn find" - last on the road in '86 ... Owner Protection Plan booklet, original paint, original near-mint aqua interior, original aqua GM floor mats, original 283, factory posi, and original rust.
Rear, 15 x 8, 4.25 bs. 245, 60, 15. Just fit behind the lip.
I wonder if the same would fit a '64 B-body (X-frame).

Silver Argent. Interesting Cliff. Hmm.

After preoccupying the group on my Tire and Wheel Change Project, I see you have the same wheels that I used on the LeMans, I thought you sold them, nonetheless, I'd say body colour.
