Looking for Pics of Alpine White cars with the silver rims

LAnderson23 · 01-13-2015, 12:26 PM

It seems like the more popular choice is the black rims with the white paints (Alpine or Mineral) but I think I would prefer the silver rims, as I've never been a big fan of black rims. Unfortunately, it seems that combo is hard to come by, I was hoping the community might have some to share!

Lol.
I had the same thought. Everyone has black rims now so silver rare and hip and stand out!

Look at the lonely sticky thread above. The very first delivered M3 world wide that we know of was AW with silver 19s.

I would love to see an M3 with a set of wheels in Volk Mecury Silver.

Every M3/M4 pretty much looks better with silver rims... Detail is lost with the black, it became a bandwagon/fad thing since it was the first time an option was available...

AW looks amazing with silver wheels....

That aligns with my general feelings as well...but I saw a mineral white M4 with the black rims in the showroom last weekend...wow. Stunning.

Certainly not saying black doesn't look good with some colors... i just think overall silver works with everything, well...

You asking stock wheels or aftermarket?

+1. Peer pressure would tell me to go black. However, I'm just not a big fan of the ///M black alloys; although, I am a fan of black wheels in general. I agree that the equivalent silver wheels look fantastic on any color. I love the gunmetal accents, as well.

Will this work, or are you looking for the BMW factory silver 437Ms? My wheels are finished in HRE's brushed titanium.

Silver ftw. Black is played.

+1, that would look soooo sick!

IMO the 437M's look awesome in silver.

NorCal f80 · 01-13-2015, 11:19 PM

Depends what you're going for. Classy? Get silver. Aggressive? Get black.

I absolutely love my silvers on my AW! Here's a quick snap. You really get to see the details that I feel get lost with the black.

AW BMW · 01-14-2015, 12:47 AM

Not an m3 but alpine white on silver rims, still really pops at night and looks classy I think. Hope it helps a little more, although the black rims are nice to. But in my case I went with the 18s but I may change to the black 19s for my SSll m3 before production starts. Seriously either way you can't go wrong on an alpine white m3

l!ve · 01-14-2015, 12:55 AM

I think the while / silver combo looks great. Instead of the black wheels which I feel get lost in the car, I decided to get CF bits and black out other bits such as the kidney grilles and side marker. I'm also gonna get the ONEighty blacked out headlights. Can't wait.

Love my silver rims on my AW M4. Very Classy. If I want it to look more aggressive, I put my track wheels on.
