to the forum fellow so cal'r, congrats on your new car...not a big fan of the black wheels personally...but as long as you are cool with them... 
. Who did you have paint your wheels (always good to let members know of various shops/vendors?)I didn't have them painted. They are oem BMW Black 18" rims. They were on the car when I bought them. Thanks for the welcome!

Black on black looks great. If I wasn't in a "my car looks like a salt bomb hit it during the winter" area I would get a black car. The sand and salt in the winter kills a cars paint around here. It very noticeable when it's a black car.

I loathe black wheels. They look like the cheap steel wheels that need a hubcap or the wheels on a prototype that we see spy shots of.

It's cool that you were able to buy a car with black OEM wheels from a dealer. Did the OEM wheels have a premium over the cost of the 18" wheel optption on the 535i?
