VMR V715 Hyperblack w/ Polished lip... on Sparkling Graphite?

These are the two pics I could find that relates to my interest. I'm thinking about the v715's hyperblack w/ polished lip. My car is sparkling graphite. How do you think that would look? Here are the two pics, first one with AW e92, second one (i think it's v710, not v715, matte black) with sparkling graphite. basicaly, how would it look with the first wheels on the second car color?

I'm debating the same thing, different wheels, but gunmetal or hyperblack on SG. My concern is the wheels will match the car too closely, which never looks good. A bit more contrast is nice on the rims.

Neither of those wheels, but they're hyper black. I like how they match and flow ..

Personally I would stick with V710s on that one. But if you're sticking with the V715's I would go with Gunmetal

Posting as I have SG..and was thinking V710's Hyper Black..would like to make sure they look okay...not to close to the same. If not hyper black I'll go hyper silver to have the contrast.

If anyone has pics...let's see them!

Our V710's are actually only offered in the Hyper Silver, Gunmetal, or Matte Black finishes. GM/MB being offered exclusively by EAS.

I should start charging copy rights.



I like how few people have V715 and in hyperblack. Pictures dont do them justice, as I think they look better in real life

i'm actually debating the same question. I have space gray (similar to sparking graphite) and I don't know if I want matte black, hyperblack, or gunmetal. I think gunmetal might look too similar. anyone have any advice?

+1 Contrast is nice. My car is SG and has the chrome window trim and I think that silver wheels look best. Black also looks good on SG, especially with shadowline trim. There are some awesome pics of that E92 M3 with black wheels, shearch the pics section.

Im waiting delivery on my AW e90...That first pic looks crazy with the black rims with the polished lip on white...I was thinking about the VB3's in supersilver, but after seeing that pic, I think I might change my mind...I love the contrast of the black and white mixed in with the polished lip..looks crazy IMO...Anyonw have any more pics of VMR's on AW's..thx...Also is there any difference in quality between these: V710-V713-v715-Vb3's besides the looks, cause im planning to go staggered..thx again
