e92 Tit. Silver - Which wheels M6 or 710's?

I have narrowed it down to 2 wheels within my price range. They are 19" M6 Reps or 19" VMR 710's matte black. How would matte black look ok on Tit Silver?

Thanks

VMRs. I'd choose matte black or the gunmetal. Although matte black will turn gunmetal after some brake dust

my VS8s are diamond black and I'm thinking of coating them matte black to go with the rest of the accents on my car.

gunmetal just looks like brake dust and on these cars, there are lots of brake dust lol I would go with matte for more contrast and maybe a silver time attack? if not, matte black would do fine on its own, more aggressive too!

V710s, M6 wheels barely look good on an M6.

M6 look freakin awesome - as Rixster said so are the 710's so its a tough one but I'll let you decide.

M6 (not exactly titanium but silver)

Or Maybe some Forgestars as well ?? They look awesome.. Plus can't beat the value same technology used on F1 cars at an amazing price. Really lightweight and very strong

Don't have it on a silver E92 but the wheels look great here is Piano Black (matte black also available)

as a rule of thumb, your wheels should cost at least 30% as much as your car is worth
