Help with wheels for montego blue e92

New to the forum, first post.. Anyways.

Trying decide on some wheels for my montego blue e92. I've narrowed it down to the linea corse dynas and lc818 but can't decide between the two. Also having some trouble with a finish for the wheels. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check out zoebs car on his website. I think he has a blue e92, and he had the smoked chrome 818's on it and it looked awesome.

Nice color choices. One thing ive heard about the hyperblack is that if you need to repair them, its hard to match the paint.
I have falkens too. You can go with 235.35.19f and 265.30.19r. That the most common fitment.

I'm a fan of darker wheels on MB. But I may be biased

That's the good news/bad news thing about Montego: Just about every wheel made looks good on that color: Silver, black, matte black, even gold. I guess that's why Zoeb uses his car to demo all of those great rims he offers.

So...sit back, relax, and make that decision.................................in 6 months...or longer.

(Personally, I like 19" silver rims that actually look like 19's - e.g. without a lip. Although, the LC Z2S does look quite nice on Montego. Glad to be of help. )

Yeah everything looks good on montego that's why im struggling but I think if I can find the hyperblack 818 they'd look great. I haven't seen this setup so I'm hoping it'd be a little original. As far as tire sizes would a 275 be better for the rear wheels so it would fill up the gap a little better or is 265 correct. I don't have any plans of lowering any time soon

hyper black is no longer available, smoked chrome replaced them

it was my favorite setup and I got rid of the car right after that setup

dang that sucks that looks so good too ahh what a shame. dang well maybe the full hyperblack dynas then. or how does the smoked chrome look in person.. not too too bling because if it looks at all similar to the hyperblack i might have to get that instead.
