BMW 313 Alloy colour options

I have a black E92 LCI.

My 313 alloys are corroded and need a refurb and spray. Currently they're diamond cut

Thinking going either black or gun metal grey. What do you guys think. I don't think diamond cut would be good idea as it probably corrode again

I've added a photo for context

Thanks

Not black, personally I don’t like black wheels on black cars. I’ve nothing against dark alloys as I have dark/black shadow chrome on silver car.

I think hyper silver would look good.

One more vote for silver.
My experience of refurbished diamond cut wheels (even by highly reputable outfits) is that it doesn't last.

Shadow Chrome on 313s look great, gives a diamond cut finish without the worry

That looks really good. I've changed my mind on the silver!
