New wheels or powdercoat?

So this is an old picture of how my sport looks

So I don't know if to either

1) Powdercoat the wheels black
2) Upgrade to 22" black wheels
3) Go for some 22" overfinch Olympus (only an option if I get decent money for mine)
There is no option to leave it as it is.

So opinions please but no haters of modified sports need comment about suspensions wear, hard ride or looking too big etc as I'm not interested.

Also what's a rough valuation of the wheels that I have on already, few curbs marks on edges and all tyres a good brand with loads of life left in them.

Those wheels look great and make the RRS look classy in my opinion. The version with grey spokes looks even better, so maybe that's another option?

Either way, I'd keep the 20's! LCFC. Receiver of threatening letters from Overfinch.

What about getting the inserts done in Black - would also look nice. I know awd man had them like that before and I think it looked better than plain black INHO. ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
MERCEDES GL350 - Metallic Navy Blue w/Grey interior

GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring
GONE: Land Rover Discovery 4 HSE - Stornaway Grey w/Black Interior (wish we'd kept it )
GONE: BMW F10 520D MSport - Carbon Black
GONE:MY12 RRS SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ivory/Grand Black Privacy glass

I think they did look really good on it in 22", I think if I did the 20's in the same style it would show how small they are.

Also when they get curbed its harder to touch them up hence the all black wheels.

Thanks for the thought but it's black or silver for me.

Why stick with 20's? Looks? Comfort?

I agree with Sag. However, having sold these after I ended up with 2 sets, I've got an idea of price which I will PM you. My suggestion is when they are ready to go, don't waste your time by advertising *just* on the forum like I did. Put them on eBay at the same time

Yep they do look really clean and factory style but I feel like a change so might be best keeping these too.

I love the style kenzi has gone for (check out for sale section) and mines just lacking the wheels to look similar..

I got your pm! Thanks for that..
