Help with old 17" spider spoke 160 wheel look...

Hi all,

I've a sparkling graphite saloon with the old spider spoke 160s (not staggered). I've just booked them in for a full refurb.

It would be great to have your opinions on a couple of things..

I'm thinking black chrome colour? this is lighter than gunmetal but darker than OEM.....

Would spacers help the look at all with these wheels? I would like it to look more aggressive on the rear if at all possible.

Thanks all.

I think spacers are more or less essential to give any E9X a proper stance. Useful guide here:

Thanks for that
I really didn't know much about wheels etc so was a very useful start.
