Running out of time and struggling...
19" Light Alloy Wheel Double-Spoke Style 437 M vs 19" Black Light-Alloy Wheel Double-Spoke Style 437 M ???
I'm really torn on what to do regarding my '15 M4 Convertible that is in production right now. I when Sapphire Black exterior which i'm set on. However, i'm really torn between the two 19" wheel options. What are people's thoughts on the light allow (all silver) rims vs the black light allow? I think I like the light allow for the contrast it gives the car so its not all "blacked out", but its seems that the black light allow look pretty cool too. I've stared at pictures posted in this section of the website, but can't really make my mind up Input welcomed. |

I really like the silver on mine. But black is in right now. Seems weird, but my friend said the black were a little harder to keep clean because of the gloss. For a little while at the end of waiting for my car to arrive, I thought maybe I should have gone with the black, but I think the silver was the right choice for me.

There have been a few people on the forum asking to exchange their silver wheels for black. Have there been anyone asking the opposite? Seems to me nobody regrets getting black. I didn't!

Silver - black looks like someone stole your hubcaps

Depends on what you plan to do to the rest of the car. Will you keep some silver on the car or black out everything? To me, this is the determining factor. Either everything black or use silver as a trim. Personally, I wouldn't mind a little silver to give the car some contrast. I don't mind a blacked out SUV or a bigger supercar like the Aventador, but on a smaller car, I prefer a little contrast.

I have a BSM F80 and also had the same issue. I went with black in the end and I must say it was the right choice! It makes the BSM cars look even stealthier! Once I saw a BSM F80 in person with silver wheels I knew I made the correct decision.

On this color I would go silver or 18s which are more a gunmetal.
OR get the black and then trade someone for their silver plus cash and use the cash for mod money. Strategically that is what I would do. |

Thanks everyone for their comments and opinions. It seems like the group is somewhat split. Anyone care to post picture of their cars for helping make their case? That could certainly help.
