Question **Black or Silver ZCP Setup on Alpine White?**

Hey What's up Guys!

So, currently in the market for a set of ZCP wheels, and can't really decide on a color. I've seen pretty much all pics of ZCP wheels, and I think both look good in their own way. To me, silver looks really clean and black takes it more to the aggressive side. The M3 does look great with the black/white theme, but it seems to be done by EVERYBODY! Curious on what you guy's think.

Details to add:

-Will be running Square setup & Spacers.
-Will be dropped on KWV3's
-Have Gloss black IND exterior package waiting for install.

I think the Black ZCP setup doesn't show off the detail of the wheel. To me it' gets lost. I like things nice and clean...Def got some more thinking to do on this one....

Have actually thought of going somewhere similar in that area, maybe even matching the color of the gunmetal 18's. By the time painting is done price of the setup gets pretty costly (ALMOST as much as Volks/Works at that point). But agree, would look sex!

I would pic the silver since your car is black already, i think the black on black is overdoing it. I think I am just getting old...

Can't go wrong with either. Personally I prefer black, it looks so nice with the CF performance parts i.e front splliter, performance spoiler.

Orange. There was a set of VMR CSL reps in orange for sale in private classifieds not too long ago at a good price too. White with orange wheels looks sick too!

But between silver and black...I'd go black since you have black exterior package to be installed. Keep one theme going

1 and you don't want to ruin the details of the wheel. The downside is gotta clean rims quite often ;-)

How are those white wheels doing?

I voted for black but I'm having second thoughts about changing them from silver to black.
