I wanted to get your opinion on which color of wheels would look best. I have a 2007 BMW 550i(Its the Jet Black color) and I am thinking about powder coating the OEM wheels black. I am debating between; a wet super glossy black to match the paint or a satin black or a completely matte black...This is just a temporary thing...I wanted to paint the wheels while I search and locate the actual wheels I want to put on there...So Ill use these wheels for the winter months and what not...But just wanted to see what you guys thought along with seeing if there are any pictures out there...

Thank you...
Sincerely,

I suggest going with black if you are going to blackout the rest of the car. This looks off if you have chrome on the grill sets, rear badge and window trim. With that said, I did a satin black finish on my 135 and it came out well. It's a good mix between gloss and matte.

This is the wheel I went with for my 07 530 XI Black Sapphire.......
