Hi everyone,

I'm trying to decide among the following wheels for a brilliant silver E55. Size will be 19x9.5 square setup. Would like to know your thoughts? Thanks!

1) Verde Axis in matte graphite (another member's car)


2) Verde Axis in bronze (my car, wheels photoshoped)


3) Niche Verona black (my car, wheels photoshoped)

 

IMO
1 - Top
2 - Middle
3 - Bottom

I'd like to see them in gunmetal and in silver

 

Top, all day! The thin wheel lines against the silver canvas make it look almost like lightning strikes. Great contrast!

+1 on top wheel style

 

This!

 

I really like the Verdes too. Top and middle are the same wheels, just graphite vs bronze. What do you think of bronze wheels on a silver E - unique yet still classy or bordering on rice? Or stick with good'ol graphite?

 

I like the middle picture the best. The bronze will look good as long as it's subtle like in your photoshopped pic. The wheels in the bottom pic are too "bronzey". Of course, my preference would be to go with a bright silver wheel.

 

Anything but the last one. Polished/machined spoke faces with black windows are just awful.

 

I think the graphite looks best but the middle picture is a close second.

 

I like the top one. Red calipers would draw attention to the wheels too.

 

^red; yes! would pop a lot more!

 

I say top one for sure. Don't like any of the others.

 

#1 for sure

 

+1 on red calipers with #1 rim

 

Thanks everyone for your input, going with the top pic in graphite!

 

I shopped those Verde Axis wheels recently. I decided against the graphite ones as sometimes they had a blue tint to them. It didn't look right on a black car to me. That might be ok for a silver car though.

 

Top one. the bronze is not dark enough to make a great contrast.

 

I'd go with silver or black.

I think they also have too much of a blue tint as well. I was thinking about going with those wheels (but in black) on my white E63 but didn't due to the rears being back ordered for months. I came across pics of this car with them and it shows up a lot more. Not a fan of that color for those wheels.



Google "verde axis E63" and a bunch more pics of that car come up.

 

Pulled the trigger; only one way find out how they really look Colors varied considerably across pics, it definitely took imagination to envision what they'd look like on my car. Will post photos after they're installed.

 

Take the plunge!! What are you waiting for, everyone loves these wheels, I love these wheels. Go for it!!

 

You'll love the Verde's in graphite. I have seen them on an iridium silver car in person and it looks incredible. They do have an unusual color to them but I can't see you not liking them. Enjoy!

 

1st but go with a staggered with 10.5 in the rear pls .




3 is gross

 

I think he's right, go staggered.
Oops too late to change?

 

10.5's only made in 20s, but had to settle for 19s since roads where I am require some semblance of a sidewall.

 

19s are a smart choice imo, they are as big as I would consider, and I'm on stock 18s.
