Satin black or Gloss black??

[BimmerBoy78]

Trying to decide between the two

Satin Black.

Painted or powder coat? How much are they charging per wheel?

[BimmerBoy78]

Powder coat $125 per wheel

That's not bad... I got a quote for $160 a wheel which I think is expensive. The rate is between $80 to $120.

Satin Black as well

Yea they normally charge $150 per wheel. I was recommended to them so they're giving me a little discount

I love the satin black look. But I was starting to lean towards the gloss black. I'll most likely go with the Satin black

Another vote here for satin. I've been looking into some wheels lately and came to the conclusion that I like satin black.

Something about white X5s just looks so good even with the factory black plastic.

Lol the look grew on me. I actually wanted the 2013 x5 m sport all white yummy. Every time I see one I break my neck to look at it.

It's a place recommended to me by a towing company/body shop. They gave me the price they charge them. It's in Queens village, NY

I have been on the same fence. Either I replace my tires and get my 214 wheels powder coated in black or gun metal or pull the trigger on a local seller on 22" mat black wheels. Still deciding.

Your ride is looking nice, enjoy!

Those Rohana wheels look real good.

If I can do it again, I would just powder coat my factory wheels satin black and call it a day. I can feel the difference in the weight of the 22" wheels. It looks great but I notice the lag when I step on the gas. I had a 2001 Bmw x5 4.4 fully loaded a few years ago and I put 22" on it also. I didn't feel any lag and the wheels were much heavier than I have now but then again that x5 had a V8 engine Lord knows I miss the power of the V8.
