BMW 666m's in Gloss Black

[khanyam4]

Thank you BMW for not finishing your competition package wheel in gloss black.

[workpermit]

I agree that the standard finish looks 100% better in person than in pics, but I'm not sure about gloss black as it tends to lose so much detail.

The wheels need some "depth" as it is, which the OEM finish goes in some way to provide (in person at least). Personally, I'd probably rather have a matte/ satin black, or gunmetal, as others have already mentioned.

I'd like to see them in a 'black chrome' like the 18" E46 M3 wheels on the face, with perhaps a slightly darker gunmetal in the recesses.

hell yeah! don't like the silver Comp wheels but will definitely rock these

Looks better but still not a fan of these wheels. Sorry, why didn't they make these concave again?!!

It's YMB. Aggressive sounds great because of the ZCP, but always down with classy.

GPS. They look even MORE like the Lexus G-spider wheels now

Nice!

I think they'll look awesome in any finish. Lol

F80 MW/SO and
M666 Candy red anyone?????

gts satin black would be interesting

and here we are just about 9 months later and bmw goes and does this from the factory to the 666m wheels. I think your wheels look great in gloss black and apparently bmw did as well.

yup, I've always like darker/black wheels

glad they're making them as an option

[JustChris]

Yup, great addition for lighter colour cars, the silver on darker cars for me.

[Powerbeast]

Id much prefer it to be a lighter contrast color.

Black is such a useless wheel color. Take all the design elements of a wheel, and hide them in a black pit of a wheel well combined with the black wheel paint. Isn't the point to make wheels pop and not hide them? Maybe in the case of the 666's, it's okay to hide them....

[IrvineTim]

I think the gloss black wheels look great because, they highlight the rest of the gloss black on our cars. My 2 cents.

[IM2C]

I like it.

[Brasko]

Looks good. A while back I posted a thread about black triple 6's here.

What you said but for the last sentence.

All black = Suck

[starbai]

nope. think it hides the design of the wheel too much. all black wheels look the same to me anyway. q

Can't wait for the black wheel fad to die. It ruins the wheel. What's the point of having a fancy rim design if it's totally obscured by a giant black rotating mass?! Black rims look like steelies on winter cars.
