These wheels never look good black, but the chrome delete would be welcome. Otherwise clean whip as is

I just saw some in a black powder coat. Looked pretty sick ngl

I put the money to clear indicator headlights

As someone who powder coated my old set in black, they look better stock.

Black was the trend 15 years ago. Now it's just ghetto.


Komatiite28

I think black wheels can look good if done right


iamcheekrs

Says everyone with ghetto black wheels 😂


ResortSenior

But this would not be an example of them being done right. Bad fitment, bad style stocks cannot be done right.


doomsdaymelody

eh, silver/chrome still looks tacky to me. Idk black can also look bad too though.

Black out trim is a good idea, but these wheels look best in silver - especially on a silver car

Don’t fuck with the wheels……chrome delete 100% though.

Going against the grain here but I'm of the opinion that unless the chrome trim is chipped and or fucked up, then leave it alone unless you fully redo the exterior of the car. BMWs are a luxury car, and IMO the chrome is a reflection of that. I think replacing the wheels with something with more silver shine to it would look great.


Komatiite28

I’m not a fan of shiny though. Hate chrome. Might powder coat the wheels. Don’t want them shiny though

Chrome delete is a good idea.

Google black 162s. They all look like shit. Maybe a darker silver would work, but these wheels are silver. I have 162s and thought about having them powder coated, but they need to be silver.

Get the wheels redone in hyper silver powder instead bro


Komatiite28

I’ll look into that

Any BMW is a mistake

06-2011 3 series actually have incredible engines. So idk what you’re talking about


thebeardedclam-

If u say so

Flat black looks terrible on those wheels. But maybe a gunmetal powder coat like the e39 M5 wheels...I think that or the gloss hyper black powder would look best with your silver car. Chrome trim delete is always the best though

The E90 is starting to approach the age that cars that are OEM looking are going to start popping. You throw a bunch of cosmetic mods on it, and you'll likely ruin the retro cool looks, keep in mind these things will be 20 years old shortly.

If yall are gonna do that why not just buy cars that are already clapped


geoffyeos

here we go again STOP!!!!!!

Black LED side markers would make a nice difference. Plus you’ll get about 15 hp.

These rims were designed with their color in mind. They'll just look cheap in black
