Sport Rims or custom black rims?? - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Hey I'm getting the new 2012 3 series sport line in white. My original plan was to storm troop it. It is alpine white and I plan to tint it pretty dark once I get it. Should I keep the sport rims that come with the car? They are 18" custom for only the sport line or should I order custom black rims? I had the 19" vmr v710 in black in mind.

Not the black. I always think frankenbimmer when I see this. The OEM rims look great IMO.

I was also thinking in powder coating those rims in black

I vote for the custom black rims. It's a unique look that make the car stand out more - unless blending in is your thing.

Stay with the OEM versions.
