Got this yesterday, but have never personally been a fan of the black alloys and are doing my nut in already :argh:

any ideas what could be done ....or what kind would suit better?

You could see if you can find some replacement alloys of the same size but different style/colour and reuse your tyres. That way you could recoup the cost by selling your current alloys.

Failing that you could powder coat the current ones in a colour of your choice [emoji1303]

Unfortunately there are not a lot of wheel options for the F56 and as such you end up with wheels that most other people will have or thinking about getting with can be annoying,IMHO I like the black but it’s your car and hopefully you will find a set of wheels that do what you want ,the wheels suit black because they tie in with the other black on the car and are you going to Dechrome it ?

I also am not a fan of black wheels that I have on my F56, I did consider the 506 cross spoke but they are not cheap, i have to agree they do tie in with the roof and mirror caps, do a dechrome and a black bonnet scoop wrap and it will all come together [emoji6]

My coupe came with black alloys and there was no way I was having black alloys over the winter. So I had a set of rotas powder coated satin grey. They do still show diets but not nearly as bad as black. I dont like how small black alloys lookhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190414/945f97bb400317aa0f80d58b036418e9.jpg

I really like the black wheels, silver wheels look a touch boring IMHO
