I know mrfva/Frank had black wheels on his car, just wanted to see other types of black/dark wheels on Ti Silver.

I don't like the red strip but has anyone seen Miro Time Attack wheels on Silver?
I have the same question. I have black and grey Breyton GTS save on my tire rack wish list. I really can't decide. I also like the look of the 124's and wouldn't you know it, BMW has these in black now (they only come with run flats though )

I ended up changing my order which shipped yesterday from Hyper Black to Super Silver. Just too many other things I would need to change to pull off the theme properly.

I wonder how much more for the black finish, vs. the cost of powdercoating the stock OEM 124s.

If you are interested Ill be selling my time attacks real soon.. Very cheap asthe rear rims where bent due to our great New York street. but nothing that can not be fixed. (especially the fact that they are matte black and easily repainted.). Let me know and if anything you can check them out at the meet... They are hub-centric and do not shake or rub..

Heres the time attacks on a silver m5. Im also having your dilemma at the moment. Cant decide whether to go with silver or black wheels...

Wow I love that M5!

the black 124s look interesting too couldn't find them on the BMW site though...but noticed that my 116s are actually forged not cast...

i have yet to see black wheels that have blown me away. If money was not an issue jcool's wheels are the best i have ever seen. I wish i had a money tree because those rims are 100% perfect.

but since this is about black wheels i think the stock black bmw wheels look the best. No lip, just black rims.
