Matte Grey or Black?

Luvmybmw · 04-07-2009, 01:32 PM

Just ordered the Black w/red stripe

Get two of each color. You can have grey on one side and black on the other!

I'll put a vote in for black

I am sorry, you asked a question? I was distracted.

I am trying to make the same decision. I like black, but I am concerned about the loss of visual detail.

I have seen lots of AW with Matte Gray, but no AW 135i with Black.

That would be awesome...and really mess with people's heads when I would tell them they are ALL the same color

Will do

SpacE82 · 04-09-2009, 09:51 AM

I have the same question. What would go better with Space Grey?? I am for sure doing the Breyton GTS-R's but I can't decide which color. I think either color would look good but I can't decide which would look better

haha. Thoughts?

Luvmybmw · 04-09-2009, 10:36 AM

I would go with Matte Grey since you have a Space Grey car. Love that color! It was my 1st/2nd choice, but my wife drives a Space Grey 335i and I did not want the same color as her...

Yeah, thats what I'm leaning towards. I really like the Matte Grey. I haven't been able to find any pictures of the Matte GTS-Rs on Space Grey.

Hmm thats pretty bad ass lol. Now I just gotta search for space grey and black gtsr's. I'm kinda thinkin the black would look better with the purpleish hue at certain angles/lighting, or is that car SGM. I dont know what to do! black or grey, with or without the red stripe

haha

ptack · 04-09-2009, 01:00 PM

You know, I used to not like the red stripe, but after seeing the GTS wheel on the 3 series I can say I really loathe the red stripe. None the less, these wheels are very much on my short list, but only because I would be having them powder coated. My only other disappointment is that they stayed OEM size. I wish they were 1/2" wider.

ptack · 04-09-2009, 07:33 PM

SGM with grey (no stripe).

I think I'm going to do the Matte Grey with the Stripe. You think it will look good with Space Grey?

Luvmybmw · 04-10-2009, 09:01 AM

Now that I have the Black on my AW (which I love) I think you would be happy with either the Matte Grey or the Black w/red stripe.

Just my 2 cents

Yeah, I think my best bet is waiting for the car to get here so I can really see the color. But I agree with you, either color would look bad ass

More pictures in photo section...really love these wheels!
