From gloss black to old school Hyper Silver. My wheel refurb guy says that he hasn’t done Hyper Silver in years. Everybody is going black and gun-metal etc.

I liked the black but I like this too. Cheaper than finding £13k to trade up to an RS6.

I like that!

And I disagree with the trend. In fact I think you’re ahead of it and you’ll see a lot coming away from the blacks and greys…

We need a before and after shot on this post please.

It’s like fashion isn’t it, trends are always cyclical to a degree.

Here’s a couple of comparison shots.

They do look so much bigger in Silver. I am on the fence as to what I like better though as they both look really nice.

Lovely car mate, no right or wrong really, and glad you saved £13k (y)

Your turn to show off your new wheels next 😉
All paid up, but no confirmation of when they’ll land, but could be weeks.

Rear light idea in the bin, as I simply can’t trust the cowboys flogging them and don’t want to trim the carpet for the LCI’s.

Reflector deletes land tomorrow though, so slowly, slowly I’ll get there…

So much better! I dislike my black wheels, I’ve not put them on this year yet, was thinking about a light bronze or silver

Love those silver wheels 👌 First thing I did when I bought the M3 was ditch the black rims.

Thanks mate. You know I really liked the black wheels but the more I look back at the car with the silver ones on the more convinced I’ve made the right choice.
