    Re: black or silver

    Thanks for posting this question & the picture links. I have a black b6 s4 & had the exact same question. After looking at the pics I would only put black OZ UL's on my car.

    If you go wth black I'd recommend at least getting tinted.
    Otherwise as it sits I'd say silver.

    Re: black or silver

    In spite of my answer above I tend to agree with GPXluke (see BBS CH BE)...but for some reason I like UL's in black. Nevertheless, I understand on purely subjective matters the only opinion that counts is the owner's (e.g. the neon orange wheels I saw on a black S4)

    Re: black or silver

    Thanks for the opinions guys.
    I wish they did them in hyperblack, I think that would look great.
    I also like the SL's but they are a bit spendy!!

    The rims in the pics are 18"s I just stole them off of the Tire Rack web site and made them fit in PS.

    Re: black or silver

    What tire were on the UL's when photoshoped the pictures?

    Lugi20: are you happy with your UL's? Some claim they are soft & a bad choice if you drive on crappy city roads?

    I'm very happy with them so far. It doesn't get much worse than Chicago roads, but I feel like I'm safe at 18" with a 40 sidewall. No damage yet, then again I haven't really hit any potholes... I play the "pothole swerving game" when I drive.

    Lugi20: Thanks for the excellent feedback! We must have the same road builders (or lack there of) 'cause we play that game in San Francisco, too.
