Default Silver is without a doubt the hardest color to buy rims for. I had CHs for awhile and thought their

silver was so bright and shiny that it made the car look dull. I don't like dark wheels so that eliminates many. I think a plain or low machine-polished aluminum wheel like the finish on a BBS RC is the best, but there are not many wheels available with that finish that clear the brakes.

Are you buying 18" or 17"? I have a brand new set of 17" SSR Comps. If interested, let me know.

Default if you wanna stay OEM looking...

get the RS4 reps or DTMs or get 18 Avus off of an S8. I personally like mine...DTM Kreuz 7's with a satin silver finish...of course I like LIP :O

Default i second the OZ SL or Volk TE37's look awsome on silver! (the gunmetal ones)...

w/ silver anything gunmetal looks pimp!
