I would leave them brushed... I find that that's half the beauty of the senekas!

Nice :D

Black rims with the polished lip look awesome, just need to de-chrome the rest of the shiny bits with some carbon [cool

I'll keep the silver face. Enhances the wheel.

Ahh was wondering when the new owner was going to revel themself !

How did you get them to fit on an M3.. you running spacers?

Mine are on the way, with the new Ceramic Clearcoat :cool:

I went with a 9J on the rear to be safe, now thinking about it, an M3 was the best place for those huge rears. Congrats.

Keep them silver man!!!

Black looks good on Mod'd car's, you have to have the rest of it to go with the hardcore look.

Other thing you could do, is make them body colour, and leave the bolts, and lip silver.

Or just leave them silver, and get the Bolts only done in body colour, that might be a nice touch.

Photoshop anyone......?

Wicked set of wheels!!!!!!! I think black will definately look good and different as not many ppl around here have that, actually not many ppl have those wheels, so either way it is PIMP. [bow

if i didn't see the picture i would say silver, but i think it's pretty good on black as well.
all down to you mate.
either way it's :cool: :cool:

Just my opinion, but black rims are a complete waste of time. The beauty of the wheel is in the detail, look at the pic of the blacked our rims, you can't see anything, but stock you see them how they were meant to be seen. The darkest you should go is gunmetal where you can still see the detail of the rim

I'd be forced to agree with the non-black side of the discussion. The point of wheels are to be impressive, I'm not sure how they can be impressive if you can't see them against the brakes/other stuff behind. Just mho.

yep, I personally prefer the gun metal/chrome shadow look.. with some nice bright red BBK under those, it'll look awesome (as well as perform awesome too) :)

im running rogue engineering hubcentric spacers on the rears to fill out the arches, fronts fit straight on.

those rims will look great on your cab! and ive heard good things about the new clearcoat. thats one of the reasons i was thinking black centers because the old clearcoat is not very durable.

ive got more mods planned to match the black rims so they would look good, but i do really like the silver! mite try p/shoping them bodycolour though....

thanks for the comments everybody
