I have a black 2010 528i and was thinking about getting ablal csl rims. 19 inch. What do you think? I'm really wanting to get csl's but idk which color black or silver since my car is black you know? What other types of rims would make it look really nice. ? I'm still leaving on csl though. Here's a link to a black m5 with black csl's. What do you guys think? Should I get black or no?

Those wheels look hot. Lots out there similar, those HRE's are pretty pricey. The forgestar f14 wheels look similar without the high cost (as another option)

The Coupé Sport Leichtbau wheels look good - but better suited on the E46 M3 CSL.

Have you considered any wheels offered by Hamann or AC Schnitzer?

Check out the Avant Garde M310. Looks very similar. I think the M310 is the replica version of those HREs.

i agree with balbs, the avant garde looks very similar to the csl and even the miro and vmr's they all look and pretty much weigh

Personally I'm not into black on black even though it looks good. I prefer a contrast and a clean look so my vote goes for silver (in the M310's case...machined). BTW, the M310 and Forgestar F14 was one of my choices when looking for wheels. I've looked into VMRs, but saw multiple posts on different forums about them chipping fairly easily.

depending on what vendor you buy through....powder coating might be an option. I didn't want black wheels with my black car so it was an option to get my M310's powder coated, so I chose jet anthracite matte(dark charcoal) from Michael @ Acute Performance. Several different color options, and it didn't increase the total cost by too much. Well worth it.
