Satin Bronze or Satin Black Wheels??!!

Right now I’m between 2 sets of wheels. Either Satin Bronze variant wheels or Satin Black HRE wheels. I have a poll going on IG and satin bronze is taking the win. I just wanted to come on here and get other opinions! I’ll have my car attached and what wheels I want to go with for reference.

I also have a BSM. I'm going to go with black satin. Imo, the black will match with everything else on the car. Plus I'm partial to black on black with black interior.

But I can see how the contrast of the bronze would also look great. Plus it would be more original and creative going with a non standard color.

I cross shopped both of these exact wheels before settling on what I have now. Haha! My vote is satin black, will look great on your car.

Either will look really good honestly, those HREs would be sick in satin bronze.

I think the black satin would work well with our cars.

Only thing ive noticed on a few of the HRE flowform wheels is the quality - to me, the finish (surface) appears like it has some imperfections.

Those were my observations from looking a few examples at my local car meets.

Personally, I like a little contrast. I just switched from black stock wheels to a bronze set and really love the way it turned out. Not sure why it's flipping the last pic.

I am also considering going bronze or black hre FF10s on my 240. Although... my car is brooklyn grey so idk if the bronze wheels will be tacky. I really like the bronze wheels though but need some input on if its a bad combo. I have only seen white and black cars pull off bronze wheels and sometimes red cars.
