definitely stick with the original ones they shot on your car...NOT the black accented ones.

I wish... unfortunately due to the car being FWD, the way stuff fits in there and the wheel design, it wasn't able to go anymore concave than it is.

The front DOES have a LITTLE dip in it... but no where near as agressive as the rear of course...

I saw the prototype of the set before they were manufactured... v1. of the wheel had a completely flat faced front, what you see here on my car IS the slightly concave front (v2, actual production run) of the wheel.

Looking good man , I agree with the others I think the finish on yours now looks better than the other.

I've posted these pics on a few forums and it seems the general consenus is for the brighter finish..

I have to admit I wasn't sold on the black finish and planned to see both in person before I made the decision, but I'm not "in love" with it either... while I definitly know that I like the all silver.

Not sure what I'll do yet. likely will do as i said, wait to see the final finished product... but thanks for the props guys

Decision will be made this week

Your car has chrome accents all over it, unless you blacked them all out like the M3, I would stick with the brighter finish. If you DO black out all the chrome, then maybe the black finish ones will look better.

As the car sits in the picture, it looks 10x classier and cleaner then it would with the black finish wheels.

The only reason I'm considering the black finish right now, is beacuse last week they shot another set of wheels with the black finish and I really liked it, and the current wheels on the car right now is another set of wheels they make with the black accented trim as well..

So staying with the theme, i decided at first that the black finish on this set is what I'd like this time around too...

But due to the design of the wheel I think you maybe right.

Examples of the other wheels shot on my car with the black accented finish to show what I mean:

This is the ones I do NOT own that they just shot on the car last week.






And this is a shot of the ones currently on the car, that I do own:
