pic request: Light gunmetal wheels on a jet black e90?

in a bind. Trying to figure out if i want a set of OEM Silver colored wheels or Gunmetal (light colored). Afraid of over aggressive look with Gunmetal rims on a black car.

I have OEM 18" Style # 260M wheels on my Jet Black E90. I would consider them a lighter shade of gunmetal.

Here are some photos >>

Can you please give me full stats (offsets, tires sizes) on your wheels and tires, they are awesome looking.

Thanks man!

I really like the wheels with Jet Black. It has a sporty, yet classy look at the same time. I just need to install a full M-tech kit to finish it off.

I posted the wrong wheel style # in my OP. I meant to type style #260.
