VMR V710 Gunmetal or Silver?

Have decided to buy rims and will be going with 18 in V710, just can\'t decide on gunmetal or silver. I have a 08 335i Coupe sparkling graphite metallic with black silver emblems and m3 spoiler. Interior is black as well. Also my window trim is still silver and have no desire to change it to black. Thanks

+1 vote for silver over here. Should tie everything together nicely, especially if you're keeping your chrome window trim.

+1 on Silver. Gunmetal will look out of place with your chrome trim.

Silver. Gunmetal would be too close to car colour. I'd do black and black out trim.

They're 18s...thought about 19", but that would have required a new set of tires, and I had purchased these not too long before I got the wheels. Personally, I think 18s ride nicer than 19s, but that's just my opinion - I have sport suspension and it's a little stiffer than non-sport. My 128 Convert has 18s that I put on to replace the tiny 17s that came on the car, but these are "Titanium Gunmetal" on a space gray car.
