Silver if it's not too late. Going with dark wheels on black runs the risk of resulting in a "murdered out" look which is both too fast and too furious for a classic car like this.

Not too late and I think you're right Hujan, thanks. I know I was all keen for the dark anthracite but I've been thinking silver as well this week. Contrasting colours looks good and I really don't want an aggressive ricer look, these beauties are beyond that.

Dubs, id recon the shipping from your place to Digs would probably be more than the price of the rims mate ;-)

Wished spacers weren't need for the rear. I would love to pick these up from you otherwise. These HREs are one of my favorite

I don't like dealing with spacers in general...that's just me. Spacers usually lead to requiring longer bolts, which means wheel locks are limited or none existence. It's just another piece I have to worry about sticking/rusting onto the hub, etc. Again, that's just a personal perspective.

Thanks for the input guys. I took another pic of the coupe to show what the carbon schwartz paint looks like in sunshine..very blue! It really is a gorgeous colour that changes a lot depending on the light. It seems like nearly all the Carbon Schwartz M's are in Europe but I know of three down here in Oz.
Anyway, I think i'll play it safe and stick with a silver wheel - thanks for the offer of your FF01's dubs but if save a little longer I might go with the forged RS100M. Decisions decisions.

I agree...that color is gorgeous. I think going silver is a good choice. You can't go wrong going with anything from HRE! Looking forward to future pics of your final decision.

I cut the hamburger in half and had the clear plastic top painted and it's an excellent colour match. Being a darker colour, the circles kind of disappear and the M badge pops nicely.

Agree that silver is a good choice. Very classy on a dark-coloured car.
