Jerez Blk E90 which color bbks?

Hi everyone,

I want the forums option I want to get a brembo bbk for my Jerez blk E90 and I'm not sure which color would look the hottest? Any thoughts?? I seen yellow and it's ok but I'm not crazy about it. Red I think doesn't go well but I was thinking about verde Ithaca green? My problem is I'm not sure which color would look the best bc Jerez blk is a difficult color.. Thanks in advance

I've been having the same debate. Out of the standard colors I think silver, yellow, white and black are the best. You're right red doesn't go well with jerez. But I haven't looked into custom colors, but I think some kind of orange would do well too.

Most colors looks nice on the black M3. Personally if you can find one, Lime Green (or the lambo green, looks sick). But if you're into more traditional, Red always looks fantastic. Avoid Silver and Black obviously. Let us know and post pics afterwards!! Cheers

Color match to your accents you have or plan to go with.
You can always repaint them if you change your mind.

Pretty much all colors go with black or Jerez. For Jerez, it's a pearlish multicolored blend depending on how the light hits the angles.

If you get some Volks that have a red or yellow band going across, match to that color.
If you want to stand out from the crowd, then get a bright color and color accent your car to that.

Well I ordered a set of p101s and I wanna color
In the hre logo and I want to match it to
My future bbk set.. So I'm trying to figure out what would look good on a Jerez blk color.. Yellow is nice but I feel like there are other nicer colors.. I wonder how white would look? Like a pear white?

M3 GTS is a special edition of the M3, with a 4.4 instead of our 4.0, solid rear subframe, assorted interior and exterior upgrades, and 100kg off

Thanks for all the input guys I think I'm gonna go with red bc I have ext fox red interior so any other color I think would look odd.. What are the specs on these s101? Does he run at all?

definitely go red, if you have red interior. it will tie it together.

20*9.5 et20
20*11 et 28

This Jerez e90 is yours with the s101? Nice your bbk is gold? Looks like silver? I like it though.. I just ordered a set of p101 I was thinking of what sizes to do.. My specs on my previous hre p43sc were

19x9 et22 255/35
19x10.5 et27 295/30

I had slight rubbing in the rear very slight it would only rub on hard dips.. So I was thinking to do the same just a smaller tire? Hre said the tire was too big?
