My Ride: 2005 Alpine White 530i
Modbargains.com 366's
ModBargains 368 Gold
ModBargains V-714
So I posted on here a few days ago in need of a new set of 19's... I've narrowed it down to a couple models, one Miro, one VMR. I'm one that likes to do things more unique, and I'm leaning towards the Miro rim and was curious what your opinions were. I attached (Thank you in advance Eugene) a pic of Eugene's car b/c I have EXACTLY the same appearance (alpine white, black roof, cf lip, cf grills etc) on my car minus the rim choice he has (which looks sick I gotta say, but I'm not about to copy him).
Should I go with the black to follow my black/white theme?
Should I be bold and go with gold that strongly looks like the BBS LM-R's?
Should I play it safe and go with the VMR's that are also beautiful?
I've had gold rims before on a pearl white g35 coupe and had endless compliments. Is it a good fit with the black roof and other black products on the car? Or would it clash?
I'm leaning towards the gold b/c I can't find a single car on our forums with gold rims. If you know of any, please post so I can better my decision!

My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
I really like the rims you have, but like you mentioned, you want to be different. That's why I voted GOLD, it IS different, I know there is a black E60 here in SoCal with gold rims, but I can't remember his name (Nerwyll knows him). Your car would look REALLY good with the right gold rims. Good luck, deciding on rims is nerve racking.

Uh oh they are out of gold!!! I may not have an option - It was a special order item. Does everyone think the black would be a good match to my car/color scheme enough for me to pull the trigger this morning and order?
Well, you can see the pic you posted - black looks sick!!! Like I said, I voted gold just because you wanted different and that definitely is, but if black is the only one available, then sure, you already know it looks great.

black would definitely work, the gold I would have to see on the car first before I could make a decision.
