If this is the RGR Diamond Black--I saw one in person several days ago.
First, it's a good looking wheel. Inside the color is dark, outside it's great. The color is created with a black paint, which is overpainted with silver-I think-and then clear coated. It is NOT a black wheel. In sunlight it matches the BMW silver grey color more or less. Very sharp and IMO fine for the titanium.

After seeing the same wheel in silver, which is back ordered, the RGR silver looks a little flashy on a light car.
I also saw the two pc. 19 and one pc. 18. I am going for a conservative car and will get the 18" in black diamond. Costs are at tirerack, I haven't found better yet. email me, if you want more.

The finish on the rim should go fine with your car.

I've got a set of these wheels in 19" and I think they are the sharpest wheels I've ever seen. They are also incredibly strong, having slammed head on into a curb with no damage to the wheels. I do think they will go quite well with the gray - the inside of the wheel is a light gray and goes well with black, silver and gray. Here's a pic of them on my car:

I looked at the same wheel and it was at the top of my list.
My preference is for black on the inside.

If the wheel is a Black Diamond, then it will go very well.
