I was in the same predicament as you were and was about to order vmr v710's in gunmetal but **********s was out of stock. I ended up going with these breyton gts-r's in satin black with red pinstripe from tirerack and I am very happy with them and the look of them. They are also extremely light weight. The red pinstripe goes nice with my red interior. Overall, its more of a personal preference.

I see a lot of people saying that the black wheels are tired and played out but I still think that black on black is very clean looking and aggressive. 1Manny, I love that combination, looks fantastic. Those wheels are at the top of my list as well, good choice.

I agree! Some contrast is what I like too.

I feel like if you fully commit black on black is great. If not I go silver for the contrast.

Shadow line trim
Black side markers
Tinted windows
Blackline taillight

This is just my personal choice, but the cool thing about wheels is you can always change them

anthracite or gun metal is a good combo with a black car, heres mine with bb ck wheels

Black on black doesnt look good on the E82 IMO.

Needs some contrast.

Anthracite/titanium
Silver
Gold
