Question Black 20" 214 Style Wheels?

Has anyone put these on? I love the 214 style, and like the black, so I think they would look good on my X5. Just curious if anyone has put these on before?



Here's my X5 ...

I almost did it last week and changed my mind. I think black wheels only look good with a chrome/polished lip.

I love the 214's and am thinking of painting mine black over the winter - there are pics of them on White and on black X5's and I think they look great with both colors.

I've got a platinum grey as well and I plan on ordering a set a little closer to spring time.

Disagree. I think chrome is for Harley's and hill billys. Does not belong on refined machinery. IMHO.

Depends on the color. I think chrome wheels set off a black car far better than any blacked out wheels ever could.

On my white M Sport, I want a brushed steel lip on a black wheel center but just can't find a style I like.

Or these in 21".....
