Black wheels on Jerez E92?

Omes · 04-09-2015, 10:13 PM

I'm looking at getting these wheels for my M3. I tried them on the car today. At first I thought the car would look to dark but I'm actually liking it. What do you guys think ?

CIFUM3 · 04-09-2015, 10:14 PM

I think the black on black is a good look.

What size wheels/tires are those. Something doesn't look right.

I need spacers , the offset is ET 33 on so I'll use a 10 or 12mm spacer on the back and a 5-10mm upfront. Just put them on quickly to see how they look.

I think they'll look good after the spacers. I'm considering black for my jerez too. Along with gunmetal or bronze but just powder coat the ZCPs.

I'm less of a fan of black on black as I like contrast between the wheels and the car, but it's your car to do as you wish. I ran anthracite on black on my other car. Other than concealing brake dust I was meh. Others thought it looked really mean.

The reason I do not care for the gloss black on Jerez is because they don't match. I don't like how the gloss black looks against the Jerez. In fact, I want to paint my kidneys and other black accent parts Jerez so it looks better to me. They also hide the wheel shape, too dark. Just my opinion of course.

I think a gunmetal or silver looks better on this color.

thetastelingers · 04-14-2015, 01:23 PM

I have to agree. I purchased black kidney grills and they didn't look right on the Jerez.

Gunmetal or silver is my vote.

squartus · 04-14-2015, 09:14 PM

Yea the gloss black is just not jiving with the car, makes it just look.. off. But its your ride do what you think looks good.

Dean5 · 04-15-2015, 02:27 PM

Love that style of rim, looks great to me

buddalun · 04-15-2015, 02:45 PM

Jerez and the black wheels collide in a non-flattering manner, IMO.

Murdered out is the way to go, welcome back 2010

Jerez and matte black wheels FTW, get rid of all the chrome bits while you are it too.

Omes · 04-20-2015, 01:01 AM

I'm going to keep the wheels black this summer. They were custom powder coated that colour by someone else and I got the wheels for a really good price from him. I'll look at taking them back to the original silver colour next summer.

I resisted the urge to go black as day, dark as night.

OP wasn't so lucky. Make sure to use your headlights at all times!
