Which Wheel finish is Best for Alpine white ?
Hi there
,What do you guys/gals think looks best on Alpine White ,I think black looks good e , but gloss black , flat black , black chrome , cleared black so many blacks out there ??????? Im thinking of going with HRE they have a few different blacks inc a black powder coat , i need some pics please of black wheels on alpine white Also i have a wheel guy here local , i suppose he should be able to paint a wheel black if i order high polish but can he strip a black wheel and go high polish ? what do you guys think of this wheel on M3 ?: 890 R http://www.tunerworks.ca/products/?fn=detail&id=421 http://www.viperalley.com/classified...=HRE_S_004.jpg thanks for any opinons

I finally ordered some matt black breyton gts race 19s yesterday. Matt black for me looks less flash and more purposeful which is the look I wanted for the M.

I test drove an M3 white with schnitzer 19" rims, and the gloss black looks was awful IMO, satin or matt would look miles better.
These rims http://www.m3post.com/forums/showpos...&postcount=162 and they looked nasty. |

I prefer the look of a GT race car that has been running for 12 hours at LeMans. Meaning I like the heavy brake dust look, so it's a matt finish for me, the M3 looks purposeful with the 18" alloys when matched with light colours but the 19" look well with the darker colours.

Yep, I ordered flat black wheels for my AW coupe. I think it will be the best looking finish. I'll make sure and post pics as soon as they come in.

I ordered Michelin PS2s in exactly the same sizes as the OEM 19s. I debated the Cup+ but in the end as my 18s have PS2s on and they are spot on I decided to go for PS2s again.

no chrome, no gloss black. whatever it is has to be matte. i prefer gunmetal, matte black, silver. no gloss, no shine, no santa-ana style shit. definitely no spinners either
for tires get PS2's or Eagle F1's |
