I have a nice sterling silver E85 3.0i. Currently it have Style 135i wheels, but I bought a set of 8x18 size Tomason TN25 Ultralight wheels. The wheels originally was black, but previous owner sanded down the paint. I need advice, what colour would suit the car best? I was thinking bronze at first, then black (maybe with a red red stripe), but now I'm at a loss.

Current: PN.jpg

The wheels current state: e0c55539-fc30-49e7-b7d7-2f69c2635aa9.jpg

Similar color Z4 with similar style bronze wheels:

Which colour would you choose?

Thanks for help!

Mine's Sterling grey with silver wheels. Personal choice but but prefer silver for wheels. Might be my age though. :)

I'd go black personnally, or try Cherry if you're brave :cool:

I went for Ferric Grey on a black Z4, its a BMW colour and toned down the standard bright silver wheels just enough to stop it being bling.

I think if the car is staying largely stock, then silver, but if you’re modifying and lowering I would go bronze rather than black.
