Wheels colors for....

OK fellas...

I am trying to decide between Voodoo Blue and Twilight Purple but was curious what color wheels would look good with either one of these colors and was hoping you guys could help me out.

I am pretty sure silver would work with both, especially Voodoo Blue. I also think a gold or copper(ish)/bronze color would look good with Twilight Purple.

Lastly, I believe Black would look good as well but would like to avoid black wheels.

Any other ideas?

Not sure about gold on Twilight Purple, but definitely on Voodoo Blue. I would push you in that direction.

Bronze, Champagne, Silver or Black on TP can all work IMO.

Ditch the OEM and get aftermarket forged, color, size and style of your choice.

That is what I plan on doing. Trying to decide on color. Don’t knkw why but I am partial to gold but may not go too well. Then again I loved the frozen gold wheels on the F87cs.

While many know I am a Vossen fan, I know they are not for everyone with their prices. They do have a great gallery section to see many colors in many styles.

For the oem, black is best option. Bronze is a fad that goes in and out of popularity. The new silver takes away from the aggressiveness of the vehicle and makes it look like a base 2-series.

Only because the design of 930M is kind of crap. The best looking 930M IMO is the bi-color because it shows up as almost a 5-spoke / Y-spoke from a distance. All black sucks on most designs, and 930M is both busy and not very aggressive. The F8x available wheels were far better. The 437M and 763M look good in any finish. I'll take the silver over the all-black any day though.

I'd look at getting something painted Porsche Platinum Satin (0b5), Porsche Titan Dunkel (0c6 from the "T" cars), or Ferrari Grigio Corsa Met (236430).

I personally don't like any of BMW's designs, regardless of the color.

Decide what you like and implement it. No one here is driving the car but you.

Avoid all black especially matte. Looks boring af and doesn’t pop in sunlight.

I have black wheels on all my cars. I like them. They look aggressive, go well with black accents that many cars have and stay somewhat clean.

I would also do a gunmetal or Anthracite which would look good on most colors, followed by bronze or matte gold…not too bright.

Silver reminds me of Pep boys cheap chrome

I plan on specing my Twlight Purple with the Silver wheels. My last two cars have come from the factory with black wheels, both cars where bright colors so felt the dark wheels what a nice contrast. I personally think the bright silver wheels is a nice contrast to the darker color of twilight purple. Voodoo blue I feel would look great with silver or black wheels to me.

Agree. The only color exterior that I really don't like black wheels with is Silver. My son's Wrangler is silver and we put gunmetal/anthracite wheels on it - looks great. Gloss black on our 3 other vehicles

My TP M2 will also be spaced with silver wheels.

For those that say gold wheels.dont work: https://www.google.com/search?q=bmw+...M&vssid=mosaic

I'd go for night gold if it was an option.
