Dont hate me

MoserBMW · 05-01-2015, 11:56 AM

I know I'm definitely going to get a lot of negative response to this thread, but does ANYONE out there like the combo of white wheels on a black bmw? Searched google and the forums and couldn't find much. If anyone has any pictures to help me out with the decision it would be greatly appreciated.

I think it is a great choice. Highlights the vehicle.

Ok, thanks. I wish I knew how to get that look for the tail lights.

Thanks - I had seen those on ebay, but seem to be a PITA to install per the user reviews.

You can also buy a spray that puts a layer of tint on any surface. I've used them before on another car. The more coats you apply, the darker it gets. Can't remember where I got it from, but I'm sure eBay will have something.

It looks cheap and screams lowlife. This is not a judgement on how pretty or ugly that is, just a fact that's unrelated.

Also, white wheels are a pain to keep clean.

With these 2 facts, wether you like white wheels or not, I think it is a bad idea to do it.

+1 from a white car owner

Oh my... I am reminded that there truly are different strokes for different folks. It is original though, I'll give you that.

Those just don't look white to me. More like really bright hyper silver.

In my opinion to white look good it needs to be semi "aggressive" setup and i think it looks way better with lipped wheels. I know these aren't black but at least dark color.

Have loads of fun cleaning the black brake dust off them every day to keep them white

They don't look bad, just putting yourself in for a lot of unnecessary work keeping them looking nice
