Silver or black 343M for MCB?

isakhnov · 10-19-2015, 11:14 PM

Curious what do you guys think. Will probably order in the next two days and am still going back and forth on it.

PEHM5 · 10-19-2015, 11:49 PM

I prefer the silver rims!

SF_DCT · 10-19-2015, 11:49 PM

I would go with silver. I've never been a fan of black wheels - they get "lost" under the arches and make the tires look dirty.

bmellion · 10-20-2015, 12:07 AM

Black only. Had black of my MCB and it looked sick.

Black on MCB but you'll need to do the same for all the chrome trim

Look at this MCB! Black is beautiful

I'd go for silver on MCB

M5essex · 10-20-2015, 10:41 AM

can you go somewhere in the middle and go for charcoal or gunmetal wheels?

isakhnov · 10-21-2015, 12:45 AM

I guess I will order with black. Suggestions on where I can get black side markers with internal area painted MCB?

Phatcat · 10-21-2015, 01:22 AM

I got the black for my build.

IND sells them

omegaSMP300 · 10-21-2015, 01:06 PM

Silver gets my vote.

momos750 · 10-21-2015, 01:45 PM

Black all the way! Black just look sinister. Here's mine, not MCB but you get the idea.

barchetta316 · 10-21-2015, 03:27 PM

I'd go with black wheels. That's what I got on my 14 MCB.

K900 NY · 10-21-2015, 08:01 PM

I ordered an MCB with the silver 343 M's. Looked great. Very happy with them...

K900 NY · 10-21-2015, 08:06 PM

But then I went black. Gotta say I it's much better. I got the kidney grills, side vents and the door handles done. Wheels powder coated. The car looks really mean and aggressive. Without a doubt, go black. It works really well with MCB. Sorry for the quality of photos....took em tonight at dusk. Will post some daylight photos tmrw.
