No clue... I'm at 46062 and will take them to Discount Tire to have them boxed and shipped. I imagine between $150 and $200 is my guess. Right now they are sitting wrapped in those plastic bags from DT and ready to go.

TireRack has a rim-on-car "simulator. Though you may not see the "exact" rim you'll get an idea. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/MiniW...d=true&sw=1920

Meantime I'm sure forum members with silver cars will share links to their car pics.

I would like to suggest OEM options like the style 172 or 166 wheels...
Second to that I think micro 111s are a super deal as well....

I'll be buying a set in around the April time frame... I'm down to two options...
Miro 111's or VMR 710's....Hmmmm tough choice!

Dark or black rims looks nice on silver cars but only if you don't have the OEM pads, because they will almost instantly look dirty as soon as you hit the brake pedal.

With a Silver car you have a lot of options. Silver or machined\polished wheels for the clean look or black for an aggressive look. There's also other colors like gunmetal or hyper-black.
