MORR VS8.2

sabbanick · 03-07-2011, 10:56 AM

own a BSM M coupe and am having the hardest time choosing the color I want for this wheel. I don't want a blacked out look to the car but i want a darker then stock look.

My options are between the following....

signature black

textured gray
Believe it or not, have no images of this option and I am not sure anyone else has chosen this color. It is a matte texture finish with no gloss. It the color is more towards the gray colored spectrum the a gunmetal finish I think it will look sick. Its just a crap shoot at this point...
would look something like...

smoked titanium (aka gunmetal)

I like the first and third choice. What colour is your car? What is on there right now?

i think you should go with textured black. Sounds interesting.

Black sapphire metallic and stock wheels.

cmark8 · 03-07-2011, 03:53 PM

Signature Black looks proper.

gatorfast · 03-07-2011, 04:01 PM

Vote for signature black here. Im not a fan of the blacked out look either but those wheels have the best of both worlds.

bhoch · 03-07-2011, 05:53 PM

What color is the interior of our Coupe? Just wondering if that has any play on what color wheel would look best.

Personally, I like the blacked out look. With that said, I would choose either the gunmetal or the signature black as both of them would be nice on a Black car.

ZStig · 03-07-2011, 05:55 PM

I think blacked out wheels are a fad, and only look good on certain cars

03z4ct · 03-07-2011, 06:06 PM

Go with signature black. Nice contrast IMO

sabbanick · 03-07-2011, 06:35 PM

Initially I was all for the matt gray, but I think it's too much. The interior of the car is black nappa leather with carbon fiber trim. Windows will have 35% tints and kidney grills are black so I need some contrast.

I leaning toward the signature black as it will give me that contrast, but still add to that aggressive look.

Thanks for your opinions, keep em coming.

I'll post pics when all is said and done...

johanness · 03-07-2011, 09:23 PM

Smoked titanium is my choice

achi · 03-07-2011, 09:36 PM

I say signature black for your car

sabbanick · 03-10-2011, 06:01 PM

Now to make up my mind and place an order for some rubber.

Sig black is the best. I wish I would have waited sometimes...

sabbanick · 03-30-2011, 07:30 PM

Wheels are SICK, I am so happy with my choice as it wasn't ad easy decision nor a cheap one. Sadly like most of the installs ive done on this car its not without its issues. The offset of the rears is 19x10 ET36 and based on the tires you choose you can run into minor fitment issues; specifically rubbing on the strut side of the inner fender liner. Luckily its an easy fix with a small spacer.

Albeit the rubbing is minor with some trimming of fender liner...i cant feel it in the steering wheel but can be visualized when inspecting the fenderliner itself with no load on suspension.

Specs of my set up....
nito nt05 245/35(F) 275/30(R)
stock alignment
H&R springs...just installed yesturday with wheels
3mm H&R spacers ordered for the rear

inTgr8r · 03-30-2011, 08:15 PM

Great choice, they look amazing on black!

Z4Murder · 03-31-2011, 06:55 AM

SCHMOUPE · 03-31-2011, 08:37 AM
