Help me decide on rims!!

Karod · 04-18-2009, 12:07 AM

Im deciding which color rims I should buy. I for sure know Im getting EAS CSL Style though. I just need to know what color. Either Matte Black or Chrome. My grill will be black though and the sides of the windows on my car are also black. Anyhow, here are some pictures just showing which I should get. Thanks!!

Option 1:

Option 2:

Black on black

Ca$hOnly · 04-18-2009, 03:19 AM

Black wheels are really fucking played out...get the first one's . They are not chrome, btw, they are brushed aluminum. Whatever you do, DO NOT GET CHROME.

iAerodynamic · 04-18-2009, 03:31 AM

no chromes please.. black on black is kinda played out. but i dunno. im starting to like the polished look

PinkFlamingo · 04-18-2009, 04:21 PM

Choice 1 by far!

Arustik1 · 04-18-2009, 07:45 PM

1.

pacman · 04-18-2009, 07:59 PM

matte black with time attack

Arustik1 · 04-18-2009, 08:06 PM

The first ones aren't chrome man..

solefald · 04-18-2009, 08:11 PM

yeah, chrome wheels are a no-no on a bmw

TiAg335i · 04-18-2009, 08:34 PM

Definitely option 2.

Well to tell you the truth down here in Mississippi there's not a lot of bmws driving around modded. I'll be like the second person to do something to a BMW in my city. Not many cars driving around with black on black.

BTW Im sorry to all the guys I offended by saying the wheels were chrome.....Give me a break....damn.

Dude WTF is wrong with you? No chrome!!!

On a serious note, it depends on what you want really. You can never go wrong with silver- it's a classic and it looks AWESOME on black cars. Now if you prefer more of a blacked out look (more modded look) then go with black.

Hahaha, but yeah I think I might go with the black. So far I see the Matte Black are winning so thats cool. Still debating though!

Well matte black is winning because 99% of people here don't recommend chrome...but let me just say that deciding on silver or black is like choosing between 2 hot girls, just close your eyes and pick one because either one will satisfy you.

in my humble opinion silver is classy and brings out the details in your CSL rims.

maybe its just me, but im all about details.

trust me man, ive had some decent stares at my car (+ a couple cute chicks when i first got them)

some guy in an army van asked me 10 different questions about my car on the road one time (he had a 5 series). silver grabs attention.

its just my opinion dont let me persuade you

DarkRider23 · 04-19-2009, 06:06 PM

Go with the Matte Black. It just looks more sleek if you ask me.

9thwardboi · 04-19-2009, 06:50 PM

Go chrome f---- black, silver, or any other color. Dark car (black in your case) with chrome wheels looks classy and fast...
