I am wondering about the finish on the Miro's. Is it basically the same hyper silver or are the Miro's even brighter looking, as they appear in some photos posted? I am considering doing CSLs on my upcoming E92 and really want something less bright and closer to standard OEM color.
Needless to say, for $900 you're not going to get wheels that are as high quality as OEM. My Miro's get nicks and rashes very often too, even when I know I haven't done anything to warrant them like hit a curb or anything.

Miro's are hypersilver, and having seen both, I'd say they're darker than the VMR's. You really can't tell much of a difference though. If anything, I might say the VMR's are closer to OEM color, so maybe that's the route you might want to take.
