Nice. Those calipers look nasty behind those wheels.

Looks phenomenal Tony!! I'm with you, I think they're a bit dark but I like them much better than the brushed look.

As some of you may know, I swapped my gunmetal/graphite Radenergie R10s out last year for some 360 Forged Mesh Eight wheels in a brushed finish. That was about six months ago. Since then I've been contemplating refinishing the centers to give some contrast to the chrome lips. I couldn't decide on which shade of gray but finally settled on Platinum Gray (saw the color on BMW's website for a regular 5 series). Got it done last week and still trying to get used to them cause I didn't expect them to be this dark. I think they're darker than my R10s and I originally wanted it to be lighter.

What do you guys think?

Judging by all the comments you made a good decision. I definitely like the look on it. Good Job!

I honestly agree with you with wanting it to be lighter. I like the look in the sig pic. Still a great looking car but i think they are too dark as well.
He should have gone with Chrome, right?
