you're not going to be able to tell the size on the car because the scaling is all relative and my photoshop skills aren't that good.

fair point... I guess I'm looking to compare the Miro 111 in hypersilver to the V710 in hypersilver and gunmetal against my car. Too bad they didn't have the 20's in the Miro's! boo.

don't think so; I've been looking into Miro 111 for mine too and so far, I found black, silver and hyper silver (supposedly special edition when it first came out)

OP, I think the gunmetal does look nice with your car color. I was thinking about either gunmetal or silver for my jet black but I will go with silver for now since found a nice deal for the Miro locally.

don't forget powder coating is always an option if you don't find a wheel from the factory in the color you're looking for. Talk to Michael. The powder coater he uses does great quality work

this is the closest I can find to my color with hypersilver... 19's, though.

The vendor is working with me on a replacement if I want to change to 20" rims, or take a discount on the 19" Miro's that are here. VMR V710 is availabe in 20" and can be shipped to me. I haven't found my color car with the VMR V710 rims yet online and would appreciate any thoughts to help me decide one way or another. I really like the Miro 111 concave look, anything else that's close in 20"??

I'm planning hyper silver at this point because I haven't seen much in my color with gunmetal or matte black to convince me otherwise.

TIA!

Hi aharper,

You might want to take a look at the Avant Garde M310's in hyper silver. I purchased a set for my 530i in hyper silver and I really like them.

I am really digging the gunmetal look with Space Grey. I wonder if that would hide a bit of the brake dust.
