Sorry for the dealer pics but we just bought the car 10 days ago, and these are the best I have!

PS Edit: Estoril blue is apparently available only on the Ms and M sport packages, so since you wont find chrome on these cars, the metallic color wheels dont look as good IMO.
Agreed, Now get rid of that chrome grill!

Blue car with black wheels cant really show a good stance when the car is running. Silver and gmetal are clearly better at making a great stance. Btw. Brighter color makes the wheel looks bigger

Forgot to post pic. These are my all black 17” snow setup.
I will have my 19” summer setup in a few weeks. I chose not to do the gunmetal gray.

My personal opinion is that silver is too bright, and black is too dark.

Dark gun metal/silver.

This is my summer setup. Since I sold the 400m wheels I had black and graphite pearl plastidip sitting around so I will play with my daughter’s hubcaps.



Here’s after three coats of black and two coats of pearl graphite metalizer. I actually like the color! Will reinstall on her car tomorrow and see how it looks.

Why not do something completely unique and custom? I was at BoneheadPerformance in Warminster, PA last week. (about 2hrs from Brooklyn) Saw some incredible powder coating including several amazing 2-tone wheels. The owner Chuck helped me to choose the right color powder coating and ceramic coating for the parts that I was dropping off.

Check out attached photo that I took and especially their website. They actually have twice as many colors at their shop that aren't on the webpage yet. Whatever you decide, please post photos of your car!
