I'm thinking of getting the F14 in Piano black on my silver E55.

I've seen a member with them on his E63, can we get more pics though?

I have 19" F14's in gunmetal.

I'll snap a photo for you tomorrow morning as it's too dark out right now.

Have you considered the textured finishes? I saw a textured bronze on an F430 the other day and thought it was pretty sick.

I believe the F10s are around $1,600 for the set of 20".. I could be wrong as someone said Forgestar raised their prices..

I think my rear's are low 30's like 32
