I’ve never been a fan of wheels with exposed hardware and this particular wheel style has far too many spokes for my taste.

However, I have seen worse.

I like! I'm a fan of aluminum finished wheels, and also a fan of spokes...had them on my last car. Love the contrast of color too, against the blue.

Yes, but he asked so...

They're not to my taste; for some reason, they look dated and perhaps a little cheap (even though they're probably not).

A gunmetal, smoked finish with narrow spokes would suit your car's specific color to my mind. Something like this but a little darker:

I can't see myself rocking dark wheels here in Canada.
Dark rims are usually like the cheap steel rims people get with snow tires and still drive them during the summer. And when they are rolling just looks like a black hole, a polished double step lip looks much better on the highway.
Anyhow these are not my rims, just my current # 1 choice to buy.
However my car is exactly the same just with tints on the windows as well. Cheers! all input is always welcomed.

I agree. Those look like Mustang rims to me but what do I know... Those ones you have on the RS7 are fire. Who makes them? Do you still have that car? Wonder when the new version will hit?

They were Eventuris.

No, I traded that car for my E63S just over a year ago. The next RS7 is almost certainly going to win some of my business... can't wait.

Thanks, that is what I was thinking the silver blue combo, with white interior works well.

Understood, it's one of the most subjective parts of a car that constitutes beauty to the beholder. For me, I think it's the silver and the sheer amount of metal that leads me to 'cheap' -- you and I are proving the whole 'beauty.. beholder' saying.

The window tints just compound my thinking that darker would look great.

Let us know what you get with some .

Nice, that's easy..... just take it for nice spin or a track day and they are gone
Then you have a good reason to do them ASAP

Do you have some better pics; meaning close ups and side shots vs the top down view? I think with more detail a better judgement would come from the internet viewers here.

Im not against silver on blue due to the contrast but the remainder of the car's accents are black in nature so it doesnt mesh extremely well.

Other option would be these with bicolor silver face in front, but I want to see them on the car first.

There are so little after market rims on this F90, in real life photos, it drives me nuts.

The style of that wheel for me is a big FAT WHOA--love it! Not sure about the orange with blue but I can imagine that color/wheel combo working on a dark-colored car or that wheel in a different color on your blue. Would be nice to see a photoshop of it onto your car... who knows.

Regardless, that's a pretty wheel!

I like those wheels on the F90. Had some similar wheels on my F10 M5.

Some pix of the F10 / F90 setups. Velos wheels and KW on both.
