What color are Z4M wheels?

GammaZeta · 06-05-2012, 08:15 PM

I have to do some minor touch up work on my Z4M wheels and am not sure if they are stock silver or shadow, etc.?

Anyone know if they are the same silver as stock oem BMW wheels or a special color?

Im wondering the same thing. Update us if you find anything!

Edit:
Did some research at work, and it seems that no one is really sure what the exact color is...and people are having matching issues when they have a wheel refinished. Im having mine refinished in two weeks, and I'm hoping he can figure it out.

This guy used "hyper-silver", but I dont really like the outcome...It doesn't have the darker undertone like the factory finish.

This guy wasn't able to get it matched. In the link it does have the wheels manufacturer's information, so maybe you'll have some luck there.

Just dropped mine off to be re-finished...The guy said that he could match them so we'll see what happens!
