Z4MC Alpine White Black Wheels

[AWM3]

Ok, please give an opinion on how this looks:

I'm not a fan of black wheels.
But, I do think darker wheels would look good on AW.
I'm trying to figure just how dark to go myself.

...something like this

I prefer hyperblack as it still allows for the wheel to be seen well and look black at the same time. Im having a hard time finding a good hyperblack wheel though....

I like both. Dark wheels on a white car is sexy.

I've always liked black wheels but I like the outer lip to be chrome/stainless/painted to get some contrast between the rim and tire. That's just me though, looks good.

I like White/Black, but I'm partial

Looks great. I prefer 18s to 19s just because of other considerations like cost, performance, and ride quality, though I think the 19s look really good. What color is your interior and what trim do you have? Are you one of the other 56 with Imola Red interior, or could you possibly be one of my four bros with IR interior and wood trim???

They're 19s, the C20s are relatively light in this size and the NT-05 is a very affordable track tire that can perform even in the 19" size (I think I have less than $900 in all 4 tires last i checked). Car has TCK DA so the ride isn't too horrible over 18s, and quite honestly I could care less because the track is where I enjoy the car the most.

Car is Alpine White / Imola Red / Brushed Aluminum Trim

Being able to see the wheels is important with white cars. Standard silver and the hyper-silver (gray) works well with the adavantage that the hyper-silver hides the brake dust. Black wheels/tires get lost in the shadows and don't show the detail of a nice wheel.

Did you change your trim because database doesn't show any cars produced with that combination of options.

If you can sport a white lip, do it. I think gold or bronze would look really sharp. Plain black? not a chance.

Nope. Car was ordered that way by it's previous owner, TC Kline.

The photo makes the wheels look darker than they do in person; I think the camera was more concerned with the white car than the black wheels. I do like the way the silver brake rotors stand out behind black wheels - they tend to disappear behind silver wheels.
