What color to powder-coat my new wheels???
Hi All,
Need your input on which color to get my wheels powdercoated. Miro 111's going on my space grey E60. Here's a pic of the current vehicle. M5tech bumper to be installed shortly as well.
I think my top picks are brushed aluminum graphite tint, solar rain, and gunmetal/black 2 tone. I have a bunch of samples posted. Please let me know what you guys think.
Thanks in advance!
Brushed Aluminum Graphite Tint
Solar Rain
Gunmetal / Black 2 Tone
Brushed Clear
Sparkling Graphite

I am thinking of the same. I have factory chrome 18's on mine and don't really care for them. the bad part is that if I purchase new rims I will go up to 19" and then I would have to also purchase new tires. My current tires still have maybe two years at best so it would be a waste to get rid of them. I was thinking about powder coating as well. How do the wheels hold up after this application? I'm affraid of peeling etc.
