Are they same?

The first pic looks silver in the middle which is what i like.


But the pic in the 2nd pic looks so different, it has some kind of chrome effect in the middle which i dont like...



Anyone can confirm this?
thanks

The center piece is painted silver, but the lip is machined/polished.

Maybe this pic helps:

thanks Dante for posting up the pics. is this your ride?

from the pic, the outer rim lip somehow looks slanted (towards the centre) making the centre piece smaller overall? is this just illusion or what?

i hope its not... b'coz i would prefer the rim lips not slanted at that angle causing the 19" looks smaller..

Also, appraciate if someone could tell me the available offsets for this wheel. thank you

No, unfortunately not my car. It's from a friends Wiesmann roadster, 19". Don't know the exact dimensions.:


The lip is not much slanted, I guess it was the angle from which the pic was taken.

Here's another one:

Thank you Dante.
But why the center cap has a 'lizard' instead of BBS?

Now what are the offsets available for E90?

The lip is not slanted/angled at all. It comes out completely flat from the spokes. My guess is that he replaced the BBS centercap with his own. The regular RS-GT centercap is black with gold lettering. Get these wheels, I have them on the boxster and love it! Not many E90's running around with these wheels so they'll be exclusive.

Now what offsets?

But no matter what, i dont quite like rivets and prefer spokes with some concavity instead of the opposite like the RS-GT
even if i go with lower offset...
