Haven't seen any on an E90 yet, but here's what black wheels look like on an E46. These are the ASA AR-1 wheels... the same that's on Execution's car, except these are 18".

Go for some gunmetal grey coated wheels instead. Black painted wheels don't look great on an E90 IMO.

Well, to each his own, but I did see the ASA AR1 in black last night and I can confirm they look bad in person. Other wheel styles may look ok tho.

It all depends on the wheel really. My wheels cut the cake I believe. You just need the right lip.. brakes help too.






They're DPE R08 Varient-S 19" in Phantom Black. Phantom Black honest to my eyes is a 100% perfect match to BMW Jet Black. You can't go wrong with black on black. Plus DPE's are some of the strongest wheels i've ever had.

well obiously the Hartge Classic 2's are my first choice...but i saw i c320 benz black with black wheels on the road and it really caught my eye. So i dont know if the e90 will have the same effect..

Are you talking about these photoshops that I made for some silly contest?




I did alot to it, I altered the headlights, new front bumper, sides, lowered it.. New hood. :P Oh i gave it a widebody too.

Maybe i should post it in media for all the E90 people to see.

I think the black will go out of style soon just like the spinners did....
