I voted for black, is that with a polished silver rim as that will be cool on a white car i think.

Black wheels are

[RevBillyG]

I'm thinking about this myself as I've got a set of BBS's coming my way soon.

I'm veering toward black at this moment in time.

[coldo]

Black looks very smart, go for it!

we have a sanction from the god of modding!!!!!!

[Geeman]

I did my track car BBS's in black. Think I should have done the rims in a lighter shade of Silver though...

Do yours black!

[iamjj]

go silver!!!! the black would look good on a black car....go old skool, go silver

[Geeman]

and another one, though rims have brake dust on them...

[orangecurry]

there is NO point in painting cross-spoked wheels black - you can no longer see the lovely spokes

if you want black that's cool, but not cross-spokes PLLLEEASSE

yes that track-cars wheels look very good close up, but from a normal distance? They look like nothing....

enhance darlings... ENHANCE what you have, don't hide it

grey doent really tie in with the black and white on the car tho-black is where its at for me!! will do them at the weekend and find out

[steedymorgan]

it's got to be black, they look damn cool in black. might even get mine done

[redrobbie]

black bbs are made for the E30

[orangecurry]

ps for the monster only, listen up...

je vais vous couper dans de petits morceaux....ayez peur, ayez très peur

[Sjoerd320i]

and.... finished yet???

it's already wekend mate

come on I want to see some result

[zip88]

i,ve got some oz's which are silver outers / backround with
polished spokes,they look the dogs ****

[zip88]

last one should read silver with black background!

[orangecurry]

Puits ? Où sont les images ?

[320Touring]

Puits ? Où sont les images ?

je ne comprend pas......

as for images-there are none-took the wheels off and cleaned them-decided they were too good to paint (see the pics in photo gallery!!)

paint back to the shop and cash in the tank instead

will probably get a cheap set of BBS and do them up soon.

[D2LTA]

Go for it, not my choice i think fully polished is the way forward but if you dont like it its only a silver spray can away

[johnono]

i have just got a set of bbs too!!!

and have been playing with the same idea neil! i like your wheels geeman!

[Zayyan]

black bbs are made for the E30

The thing is they're not, and that's for a reason.

The reason being they don't look right.

Well done Neil for deciding not to deface a nice set of wheels

thanks Zay, slowly coming round to that realisation

however, may just get some cheap ones later or get these....
