Black or white?

HighQ · 12-19-2008, 03:46 AM

Make that: OEM silver or powder coated black?

I think silver has more class, I like the design of the wheel and feel black would make it look smaller.
But... black looks so mean

Black wheels is an aquired taste at best and on your car with that style they just won't look as good. IMHO. Go for Gunmetal look. You will get the darkness you want, wihtout that dirt look.

Keep it original. Silver FTW

With the dark tints the car has I think it would look good with black wheels...but like you said...the stock wheels don't look good on black.

Black painted wheels look terrible on any stock wheel. You should really have a lip for black wheels or a different style with a time attack rim.

Alpine white is the best in my opinion

Deda · 12-19-2008, 01:53 PM

aw!

AV9 · 12-19-2008, 01:54 PM

m2kev · 12-19-2008, 01:59 PM

andyffer · 12-19-2008, 02:04 PM

buy new rims if you want black ones

I think you should go with the BMW Performance wheels
