    silver would have been cooler but at least you shelled out the cash for powder coating as opposed to rattle canning em

          IMO, you should have left the lip silver. but those look sweeeeet. I have euroweaves as well, how much did you pay for that? if you don't mind me asking.

            if i had left the lip silver, they would look like yers....
            it was $300 to sand blast and powder coat...they also fixed the lip a lil, b/c it was rashed all to hell. these wheels were really in terrible condition when i got them :? , even though they were advertised as good condition. but after dumping more money than they were worth new, they look how i want them to.

                But on a car that color it might look good...if he gets rid of the chrome bumper and tints his windows. Hopefully the weaves don't blend into a mesh of blackness when you look at em. Although that may be why Jordan is dissing them in the first place.

                      I'd have to agree, I've never liked black wheels, polished lip or not. They always look like ass to me, takes away from the whole look of the car.

                      But you like em so thats all that matters.

                        Polished lips will redeem yourself. And BBS caps instead of BMW ones.

                        70mm ones from Tirerack are pretty cheap...

                          I love black wheels, especially on alpine weiss cars. I think your wheels look great. If it were me, I would have gone flat black though, but you are not me. Post a pic of the car when you fit 'em.

                            If you don't have centercaps, but want centercaps (BBS ones, not BMW), then I have a set in dark blue that you could have powder coated for (probably) very cheap.
