Help!! VMR V710 colors? :D

I absolutely fell in love with the VMR V710 when i first saw it on this forum. Now i have a hard decision and i need you guys to help me! i would love to see pics of your VMR V710 wheels. I have a 2009 alpine white 328i but im not sure whether i should get the wheels in gunmetal or matte black. What do you guys think? Thanks!!!

That is a tough choice. Both are great colors, personally my vote is for the gunmetal just because it gives the wheel a little more depth and people can see the design of the wheel. Black kind of hides the look of the wheel.

Gunmetal




Matte Black





Plus, a few miles after a clean wash the gunmetals do start getting a little darker due to brake dust etc, etc.

Go with the gunmetal, Michael above is right about being able to see the wheels if they're gunmetal. Black wheels on a white car just look like black holes lol

Love that Gunmetal VMR V710 + AW contrast. That being said, white+black is always a safe bet
