Blacklines + 156 style wheels = best combo. Doesn't matter what color car you have, it'll look good.

I thought that was an issue initially, I would ask does that mean the stock ones go well with all E90 body colors or just we did not have a choice but we have a choice now. I can live with or without blackline anyway.

I was RIGHT !!! I always thought metallic dark grey must be good on white cars and the effect is great . It is the first time I saw AW with BL and look cool

I am pretty sure somewhere out there there is at least 1 Sonora E90 running with Blacklines Are you saying such a car will be the rarest e90 in the world

What about Deep Green, I think this is another color where blacklines might look good with...

I think so too! To me, the BL's give the car wider lower looking stance and the stocks make the rear look taller and thinner.
