Whatever floats your boat. Eeeeny, meeeney, miney, moe...

 

Good morning,
I'm having a difficult time deciding what looks better on a Portimao Blue M340i (will be leasing) -

the 19 inch 791M Jet Black wheels vs the 19 inch 791M Bi-Color / Jet Black wheels

I'm going to get either the stock grill with the black and cerium gray colors
vs changing to a black kidney grill / Black M Performance Grill (depending on Parking Assistance options)

Is the right way of thinking about this black grill with Jet Black wheels vs stock grill with Bi-Color wheels?

I'm just not sure about the all Jet Black wheels on a Portimao Blue ... is it a mismatch?

The last question was if it is decided to go Black and Black, do the cerium gray mirrors stand out strangely?

Thanks guys!

Number 2 but in Tanzanite Blue II Metallic looks menacing and cool.

 

Black Wheels are past their expiration date.

Bi Color 19" & stock M-performance grill. MPPSK/THP on M-Sport 440i Coupe.

 

So not true, the 791 jet black are the best looking wheels next to actually black m wheels

 

On my 2016 340i in Estoril Blue I went with the black grill and the grey wheels that went with the track package and that combo worked really well. When I ordered my 2020 M340i in Portimao Blue the blacked out grill was not yet available. I felt the bi-color wheels (with the go flats) worked well with the grill that was now somewhat bi-color and the grey mirror caps. It all also coordinates with the bi-color grill/trim in the Ari ducts up front. So my vote would be picture 1 up there which is what I've got.

 

Jet black is so 1999.

 

I appreciate everyone's input! Thanks

 

Looks like my 2013 Estoril Blue F30.

 

It's obviously all personally preference, for me...the black kidney grille makes the car...it's a must have. I'm not a fan of the all black rims...I like the contrast...I'd go with the last picture but I like the M double-spoke cerium wheels

 

Well, even though my car is Tanzanite Blue, I went with the 791 two color -- the rim spokes stand out nicely

Hope that helps

 

I am rather partial to the M Performance 795m bicolor wheel. But that is not factory standard either.....

 

Thought this would be of interest. wheel selection choices on the 2020 C8 Corvette.
