ANY SUGGESTIONS ON RIM COLOR AND STYLE ON A 135I mineralgrau with red int..

I was thinking red 264's as closely matched to the interior..matte black grille(already bought in matte and I think if I paint it red it would look shitty idk),and spoiler front and back + wing matching the same color of ext..
or..
matte black rims with matte black grille and spoiler front back wing combo in cf...

any suggestions..
I like the niche citrines in bronze but the interior doesn't match that color combo I think

I think if you are trying to match the red interior you should stick to slight red accents on the exterior. I think red brake calipers or a simple red stripe around the outer lip of the wheels where they meet with the tire would look a lot better and more subtle than red wheels and red grilles. Of course this is all opinion based so take it for what it's worth. And remember to go with whatever look you like most at the end of the day.

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. The red would really stand out so "less is more."

Yep to what he said. I think that grey on red is a fantastic color combo, but that adding red wheels would be a disservice to your vehicle.

The red calipers or red line on the rim could work. Another idea would be a red accent line around the lowest part of the front and back splitters plus side skirts. Or do maybe red calipers and red side mirrors, which is a look that MINI does pretty well. I'm not saying I love it, but here is a grey 3 or 5 series with that look. http://www.***********.com/images/im...cda06b_b-1.jpg

I don't like the idea of the red grille.. but I was throwing it out there cuz I think it would look funky if the rims were red then u had a matte black nose..
I would rather go matte black wheels with cf accent to tell u the truth.. but every1 has it ;(
I like the idea of the red accents..imo red is the only color that would look good with min grey.. soo im subject to played out black,, or red.. wich like u say.. im some cases would b a disservice Im stuck between a red rock and a hard place
thanks for ur input gentlemen

Liking the red accents on the 2 series. Subtle, but still stands out in a good way imo.
