My X5 is titan silver with standard tiger claw alloys in silver. What do you think to having the wheels redone in either black or dark grey?

Ooh.. We have a critic..

In my opinion not black, makes cars look a bit Chavy, ( you know what I mean ).
Maybe a slightly darker silver or go for it with a shadow chrome finish, you won't really know until they're on the car, then it's too late I suppose.
Have a search for images of cars with that combination

I saw this in Majorca last summer. I thought it looked pretty good.

Seconded. Personally, having twice made the mistake of having wheels done in anthracite, I wouldn't go darker than Ferric Grey.

You can look at a million images on the 'net but until you see the colour for real you won't get a true "feel" for it.

I had a set of Ferric grey wheels on my E53 they were the best colour for the car although it was black !
Have you thought about changing the wheels ? Have my old winter wheels for sale .( pm for pictures )
