Hyperblack Rims on AW

I have been searching everything I can find for pics of Hyperblack on AW. E90 LCI preferably. I am thinking that is the best combo or maybe Gunmetal. I am leaning more toward the Hyperblack but wish I can find more pics. Please Help!! I was thinking either Alufelgen SF-71 or CS7.

Cool thanks for all the help so far. It is really hard to find HyperBlack on AW. Looking forward to Alufelgens pics since he has the rims I want.

Could just be the photoshop work that was done on them.

I'm losing my mind. The AW M3 is my personal car.
It has the hyperblacks on the passenger side.
And silver on the drivers side.

That explains a lot. Funny you forgot you had them on your own ride. I think the Hyperblack looks the best. What is your personal preferance. If you were going to put SF-71s on a E90 LCI would you go Hyperblack or Gunmetal? In the pics you have of the Hyperblacks they are all pretty Chrome looking which I know is a trait of Hyperblack but do they ever look dark and if so at what angle. Do you have any untouched photos of them on the car?

I like plain silver

I dont love the hyperblack not my style so gunmetal would be my second choice.

I will check to see if I have any unedited shots. In the meantime:

Same Lighting

Here are mine:
SF71's in Hyperblack

It's a tough finish to photograph. They really don't look chrome or silver but they do seem to photograph that way. None of my pictures do them justice. My best description would be like a stainless steel or billet with dark shadows. There are some other brands that definitely are more "black".

I like the SF71's because they're not too bright but still bright enough to stand out even when they aren't recently washed. Take a look at some of the gunmetal finishes after a couple days of brake dust or when they're dirty. They end up looking like they have a cheap rattle-can finish. They look dead.

I highly recommenced these! I've had them since early this year and they still look perfect. Not a single chip, blemish, mark, etc.

Hyper Black is definitely an extremely dynamic finish and it is very difficult to capture its color in photos.

What color is your E90? When you get them, can you post pics of them on your car here? Thanks.
