GM on the 98's

flat black on the 97's

and by painting the stock side skirts it'll look like you already have a full kit!

If you paint them black get some tire cleaner/shine to go with it. Nasty dry looking tires on fresh black wheels ugh.

well you are right, but the BMW has a way bigger selection of OEM Wheels that are compatible with almost every BMW CAR.

Acura has very few. My car is 4 lug and im starting to feel the pain when looking for rims.
