Mags Colour? Chrome, Black or Gold?

Hey Fanatics

My M400 style wheels are going in for refurb tomorrow, and I can choose what colour they get resprayed once the curb rash has been fixed

What are your thoughts, this will be on a E90 standing on 18inches

Chrome (Original)
Satin Black
Gloss Black
Or (Gold) I personally prefer the Gold but would love your thoughts on the subject


Here are some pics, it looks like the black rims disappear with the tyres, but black seems to be trend now

personally not a fan of a black rim, as you mention, it seems to disappear and one does not see the dynamic of the rim.... just my PO.....:tiptoe:

Sorry I know this wasn't one of your choice colours but:



If I ever get my mitts on another set of rims.... I want to try THIS colour.
I wanted to do it on my X5 but chose gunmetal instead in the end.

I just think it looks hot but it wouldn't work on my 442M bi-colours... I just like them too much the way they are :coolShake:

They do everything, very reputable company, I had my 19" with them last year that needed diamond cutting and a hairline cracked fixed

I would say a mat black, does not disappear as much and can still see the lines properly.

or how about gun metal grey

Gunmetal on a white car.

Gold would only work if its bigger than 18's and if the car is dropped with some other bits done to it.

Definitely not black!

The only objection to gold rims, is that it reminds me of a Subaru.

Otherwise, looks good. You right about black rims being over-played these days.
