I noticed the same thing on the brushed black, having a hint of brown. I personally didn’t like it but I think those warm tones will go better with IOM Green than Port Blue which is what I have.
Agreed on the brushed black. Had a set on a black car a while back and certainly had a bronze/brown hue to it when under light. Looked really great against black, but to your point, I imagine some colors may not complement it too well.

Interesting the brushed silver had the same effect...have not seen that finish in person.

Did you happen to get a weight on this set of wheels?

Did you order direct from BC Forged?
My wheels are being shipped on Monday so it took about a month for me . I hope the quality is good as everyone says. This is my first set from them.

I didn’t. My priority wasn’t weight savings but BC Forged has a good reputation for their wheels being fairly light. I doubt they are class leading in any way.

When I get them I’ll try and remember to weigh them.

I got these mounted on Saturday.

I wanted to wash the car before posting but here they are for those interested in the fit.

I like this color wheels with your paint. It's hard picking wheels especially with BC Forged wheels. Not like the old days when you could walk in and see something in person before buying.

Thanks man, I appreciate it.

You’re so right about picking colors being hard. I’m going to get my curbed wheels fixed and should be able to see color samples before getting them powder coated.

Gun metal grey would be sweet on your car.

These are an awesome match against the blue. Proper proper pairing here - BC makes a fantastic product as well, have gone through three sets of them with zero issues.

Hi, you Think these would fit OEM size on ceramic brakes without spacers?

They should fit.... my car has a aggressive offset at +11 and +12 which is the equivalent of 15mm and 13mm spacers and I have a decent amount of clearance with steel rotors.

That color combo is on point! 5mm spacer would really help the stance. Just to remove some of that gap.

If you order from BC Forged, they ask if you have the carbon ceramic brakes and cut the wheels for them.

To say that I struggled on the fitment is an understatement. I do like an OEM plus look and I think I an achieved that.

I have some 5mm spacers and have thought about slapping them on. I may try it just for kicks and grins since I already have them.
