For those that have seen the black wheels in person, is the outer part of the wheel silver or black chrome? I have been told different things, but silver and black chrome are obviously very different. Could there be two versions?

Silver IMO. The black wheel fad has worn.

I sort of agree, but I currently have an interlagos blue E90 with the silver competition package wheels, so kind of want to change it up. I also think the black wheels will look good with the carbon fiber roof.

The top one looks like the bottom one but with really dirty wheels. Lol. The two ton looks odd IMO.

I have done it before, so I would do it again. I think black wheels look better on YMB than what I had on my IB E46.

I just feel for as light as YMB is. A more gunmetal color would suit.

That's funny because that is literally my dream car (in that color combo, assuming that is the Mexico blue one).

I'm going with the silver 19's. You can't go wrong either way, and it is just a matter of personal taste. I like the new spoke design, as my old E92 M3 wheels were a lot of work to clean off all of the brake dust (non comp 19 inch wheel).

I will probably end up getting these anyway, so I guess it really doesn't matter.

Going 19" silver. The two-tone black just doesn't do it for me.

Yes, they are photoshopped.

I went with AW with black wheels. Hopefully it looks good.

The black wheels look really good in that photoshop IMO and may influence me to go with the black wheels. I have been trying to decide between the two options for awhile now.

If I trade my '13 E92 for an M4, I will tell them I want to keep my ZCP wheels, they can have the new M4 wheels. Not diggin them.
