VMR VB3 CSL Matte Black Wheels or Gunmetal for my AW E92?

BMWLove86 · 02-03-2012, 04:40 AM

I just can't decide. I really like how the gunmetal looks and can seem toi change color. Up to this point I have been hell bent on getting the matte black, but as I get closer to pulling the trigger, I'm starting to lean towards the gunmetal. Any advice?

This is my car as of now by the way

I personally do like the the Gunmetal as it does give the car a sporty and aggressive look. Here's a picture of my customer and fellow E90post member madmanhiker's E92 LCI 335i with the VMR VB3 CSL 19" wheels in Gunmetal for you to check out!

Matte black gets my vote.

I went with matte black on my AW because it looks aggressive. Gunmetal will look more subtle. It all depends on your taste.

I want the aggressive look

I think gunmetal looks best with black cars since it creates some contrast. However, I prefer matte black rims with white, silver, and space grey cars.

Here is gunmetal on a graphite 07 335xi. I am stoked on the look. Sorry for the crappy pic, it has snowed a ton since I bought the car and this is a small window where the car was clean for 24 hours.

Are these VMR V703s (VB3s) I'm currently ordering some right now, trying to figure out offset/sizes.

They're drilling me some blank 19x10 ET 35s and I'm hoping they'll fit my '07 335i.
