What Color 19" LC818 on a Sparkling Graphite E90?

Duck360198 · 03-28-2014, 10:31 PM

Hey guys! Would love your opinions on this. I really think the LC818 is the route I want to go with my wheels. I have a Sparkling Graphite 330i and I'm torn between the Hyper Silver and the Hyper Black.

I like the hyper silver because of the contrast and it shows off the concavity pretty well. But I feel like maybe it would get tiring after awhile because it's too common.

But I also like the Hyper Black because it's so shiny it doesn't really feel like gunmetal. There's still a bit of contrast between the car and the wheels. Plus, it's not a color you see everyday. However, I'm concerned that maybe it's just the lighting in these photos with the contrast and it's actually darker than I'm thinking.

There are no other options because I don't want anything else.

I have SGM and was looking at these wheels. I was going to get them in Hyper Silver because I couldn't find anywhere that had the Hyper Black available. Hyper Black is sweet and you can always powder coat them at a later time to whatever color. Silver does look very clean on our color though i think

This is exactly what I was thinking too. Just not sure if there's a price difference between the colors or not. Right now I'm leaning toward hyper black. Tough one.
