What wheels look good on a BMW 8 Series E31? Finishes colour-by-colour
A BMW 8 Series E31 on the wrong colour wheel looks worse than it did on the factory set. Below is what we would put on it, paint by paint. Every wheel is confirmed to fit (5×120 PCD, 72.5mm bore, staggered), and the factory offered it in Alpine White III, Orient Blue Metallic, Stahlblau Metallic, Atlantis Metallic among others: one finish call per paint below. Crumpsall Alloys supply and fit from our Manchester workshop, free fitting available.
Black Sapphire Metallic 8 Series?
A BMW 8 Series E31 in Black Sapphire Metallic, we would run gloss black, all-black is the low-key choice that still turns heads when the sun catches the spokes. If not that, silver, the classic move: silver lets the wheel design actually show against the dark paint.
Alpine White III 8 Series?
A BMW 8 Series E31 in Alpine White III, we would run satin / matt black, satin black gives you the black wheel without the mirror shine, so it reads technical rather than flashy.
