ni8shadow · 02-23-2010, 02:31 PM

Got a great deal for vb3's. I have a Titan. Silv e90 and I want to know which would look better, hyper black or silver. I wantged gunmetal but it's outta stock for a few months. I am leaning towards hyper black but I have not seen any pics of that combo

Posted this in the other section as well - hyperblack if you plan to black out window trim and grilles, otherwise silver

Here is a large picture of the Alufelgen CS7 wheels that we took pictures of.

the Hype Black has a Black base that gives the metallic color a lot of depth.

Go with silver unless you are going to do the blackout theme on the car and make it more aggressive. You cannot go wrong with silver but with Hyperblack, the car needs to be aggressive to pull it off.

I see..silver now or wait for gunmetal...choices choices

hyperblack is like shiny gunmetal... looks good. I personally only think silver looks good on dark colored cars that AREN'T black, like monaco blue or the maroon (barberra?) red.

silver on silver is just gonna look, well... too much silver. Go with the darker shade for some contrast or just wait for the gunmetal, which would be my 1st choice too.

Doesnt matter what color you get. In the end your ganna want the "other" color instead and back and forth. Its always like that.

I had hyperblack wheels and got sick of them in about 2 months.

I personally like the Hypersilver finish a lot more and I think on your TiAg E90 it'll match a lot better!

ibeclueless · 02-24-2010, 01:33 PM

silver will look good on your car

Darth335 · 02-24-2010, 01:37 PM

Both will look great on your car, but I would say HyperBlack....But I love the "black out" theme.

Silver looks more prestigious, Hyperblack give more of a perforamance feel.

I'd go with the Silver.
