Silver ZCP or Black 359 GTS

Dr. Dre · 01-01-2018, 08:17 PM

Can't decide between Silver or Black. My car is a black 08. What do you guys think.

TrAcK TRaP · 01-01-2018, 08:35 PM

Silver of course..

shimmy23 · 01-01-2018, 08:39 PM

Silver is my vote. Black looks good on sg but too much black on jb

ByeFelicia · 01-02-2018, 01:10 PM

Agreed with above, black needs that silver contrast. Classic look.

cgoldie187 · 01-02-2018, 02:54 PM

silver for black, black for all else

dparm · 01-02-2018, 03:14 PM

I don't care for the black-on-black look. The factory hypersilver finish on the ZCP wheels is understated and clean.

Also, black wheels don't really hide brake dust any better than silver. Your wheels will still have a dingy brownish-gray color once the dust starts building up.

THIS!!

Back in Black....

Take it from someone who had black GTS wheels and is now waiting on hyper silver m359s squares to arrive, you want the silver! Black hides the beauty of the wheels, despite the black still looking great hyper silver is just over the top stunning. Compare my car with black GTS and another with silver

Completely changes the car

I went from silver to black on my Black E92
Silver looks better in person, black better in pictures (my opinion)

Cant go wrong either way

ricardofors68 · 01-11-2018, 04:20 PM

Silber is my vote.

slowm3 · 01-11-2018, 10:05 PM

Black

Sammy82 · 01-12-2018, 02:47 AM

Silver

Or powdercoat them in white, so did I

nOEMm · 01-12-2018, 12:45 PM

Struggling with this as well. Except im mineral white. Think small, granular spoke wheels like the mesh 359 need to stay light colored in order to make out any sort of detail of the rim, especially in pictures.

Plan to stay silver or maybe powdercoat some light degree of grey/gunmetal like nardo grey or something.

E46M3forRay · 01-12-2018, 06:32 PM

Doc.. Silver is the correct prescription
