Wink I'm getting bored of my wheel color....help!
What color should I re-spray them? (black is not an option, takes away from a wheel IMO)

My car will be slammed in a few weeks once I install my coilovers and massage my rear fenders a bit.

I also removed the plasti dip from my body mouldings.

Next mods are an MTech rear with a carbon fiber diffuser & jet black roof.

Thanks BFc!

since you painted your mouldings, you should get the kidneys color matched as well, would look so good.

white, as stated in the e39 section moments ago.

White 5 spoke multi-piece wheels are very nice.

I can have them sprayed alpine white by my painter @ work. I need a PSchop once it's slammed.

I vote a pretty normal gold color for the centers, with the lips staying polished. Maybe I'm boring.

polished lips are nice, but they have been all the rage since 1994. Time to get some Obama supporters around you to negotiate some Change.

Do all white, it will make the car pop.

Keep them as is. Anything else is a downgrade/fading trend.

Leave the lips polished, but have the bolts sprayed black. And definitely go white, it looks insane on a dark colored car.
