Your opinions on which rims look best w/ S Graphite

I'm pretty undecided on which rims will look best with my sparkling graphite E92. I was leaning toward a matte black or gunmetal, but now I'm not sure. Any ideas? Pics are always good.

I been looking for some light 18" wheels for my sparkling graphite E90 and I like the TR Motorsport MT1 matte grey wheels.

I just wish I could find a real picture with a E9x with these wheels.

I'm not usually a fan or darker colored wheels, but damn...this is making me second guess myself!

With sparkling graphite I don't think you can pick a bad wheel color... It looks hot with just about anything.

I think silver is the worst match, IMO. Brushed is second, but it's all personal choice in the end.

I agree with you on that. I thought about gunmetal CSL reps or similar, but I'm not feeling that either... needs a polished lip or the care looks too monochromatic IMO.
