16" BMW Style 360 vs. 17" BMW Style 285

2010 E90 LCI Platinum Titanium Silver

Going to powder-coat the set gloss black I think goes well with paint and blacked out grille and side markers.

I currently have the 16s that came factory on the car but can purchase a set of style 285 17s for $200 what you think I should do?

Looks good! trying to stay away from 18s or 19s seems like everybody does that on these cars.

When you Paint 17s black they look like 16s

well these are my winter wheels, for summers i have 18” and 19”. 17” is also minimum size on mine due to brake disc size

I'm also biased and prefer the 285s. With that said not sure they look great in black. Some OEM wheels look good powdercoated, others it looks cheap IMO.
