    opinion on wheel colour?

    opinions please.
    Currently run style 42 17x8 on my 318is but they are 5 lug so have 4-5 lug adaptors. I don't trust the adaptors. I don't drive it anymore because I am scared a wheel gonna fall off. SO back to the 4x100 architecture we go.

    USD/AUD ruined so hopes of more Forgeline / HRE are dashed. Settled on BBS LM. Colour is the question. Since they have none in stock they offer me silver, gold or diamond black. Really its a choice between gold and diamond black.

    Offer for your opinion, original, gold and diamond black.
    current

    gold

    diamond black



    Diamond black not 100% accurate as its a scaled down 19in wheel (the only front on shot I could easily find, hence the spokes are longer / the hub area smaller. The gold one is 17in wheel so spoke length is accurate.

    opinions on colour?

          In real life, deep gold is going to look best I think. Almost looks green in the pic haha

              Did you consider a size down for BBS RG-Fs in 16x7? They come in gold or silver...
              Anyway - I vote for the LMs in Diamond Black

                  Thanks for opinions.

                  I do know about RG-F and I did discount them because do not want.

                                      Diamond Black looks incredible in person. The E46M has Diamond Black BBS RS-GTs on it and they look amazing.

                                                          Real LMs? 17x7.5 in diamond black. Good choice. That's what I would've gone with.

                                                          How much did it set you back? If you mind me asking
