The blue looks great, it's more subtle and works better with the white IMO. The gold is too strong and overpowering.

Very nice wheels! Go for blue, it is more unique. I would get tired of gold quickly even if it looks good...

I'd go blue, since it will match the stitching, match the BMW badge on the car, and it's "an M color."

They wouldn't work on a LBB car, but on white they pop pretty nice.

White and gold is played out too, IMO

Wheels are from 1221wheels.com , ex hre and adv1 guys working there.

I was going to go with Gold, it's always a great combo on white. But needed a change, been through various colors on my previous cars so blue was the right choice for me this time. And it's not your common bright blue finish you see everywhere, this is much more subtle.

Will post a pic once the wheel is assembled with a nice chunky lip and bolted with some light weight titanium hardware.
