Yes, Brandon said it's 702 motoring and they already have an install lined up. And, it's not mine - I'm sending it directly to Kleemann in Colorado!

I acutally considered the 847r... but, I couldn't justify spending an extra 2k on them. I think the 441r will look great with the high polished lip and the aluminum brushed center! .... the 5 week wait will all be worth it when I put those bad boys on there.

true, i dunno, when i get brembos for the rear i will need to have my 4 series sent back to HRE so they can make them fit. so instead i may just dump the 4 series and go with 841s in brushed, not sure yet.... who knows, i may actually switch to avus.

Do you guys think I made a mistake going with the brushed aluminum w/ high polish lip instead of going with the gloss black w/ high polish lip? As seen in these picture: My car is silver too. The more and more I look at those pictures, the more I want the black rims.

Not at all! Black is the new chrome. Your brushed aluminum will stand the test of time and the color will allow the excellent design to really stand out. Black wheels are all just black wheels.

Its all subjective, but personally, i HATE black wheels more then anything. It looks so un classy and you cannot even see the design of the wheel. Everytime i see a black wheels it reminds me of a car missing a hubcap. The brushed you got is the best color for a silver car to me. People say black is good because u wont see brake dust, but instead of your wheels turning black, they turn brown. I think you should stick to your first choice. I'm sure you'll love it once you get them.

Hey BlackC230,

I'm getting black Hre's soon (from you btw ). Are you trying to say my wheels will look like crap! J/K. Everyone has there own opinion. I never thought I would buy black rims but I think these will look sweet on my E500.
