Has there been any pictures come out of the G87 wearing the non black silver wheels? Unless I am mistaken they are an option.

Haven't seen a single official picture with the bi-color wheels.

All we currently have to go by is the UK M2 Configurator. Oh and the Canadian ordering guide.

This is the frustrating thing with BMW. They do it time and time again with new launches. They give us an odd camo car with the silver wheels on, then they come to release the real videos and pics, sometimes with multiple cars. Yet they don’t think to fit one, just one with the bi-colours. Leaving people to blind order them and hope they look good.

It’s the little things that help people a lot when they are spending a lot of money!

Hopefully we see something before the allocations are out.

Just some pics of test mules with them on.

Here are some diry AF bi-colored 930M wheels.

I'm curious if the 826m wheels from the G8x M3/M4 will fit. Weren't some of the test cars fitted with those anyway?

I feel like I'm the minority, but anyone else not bothered by the fact that they leave some spokes black to artificially create a pattern?

Hence why I wish they offered 826M wheels at least. I miss the days of all silver wheels.

They were, but what's odd is the only wheel type for M2 is not called 825M as they are on the M3/4. They are 930M even though the only difference is they are Jet Black vs the other finishes that the M3/4 get. BMW doesn't typically name the same wheel with a different style type, they have one style like 825M, but then differentiate them via a three digit alphanumeric code like Style 825M, Code 1T6 and Style 825M, Code 1T7. So why did they give the M2 wheels which are exactly the same as the 825M a different Style Type? We don't know, but some have speculated that it maybe a different offset for the M2. We won't know until we get the full specs for the wheels and that also means we don't know if the 826M will fit either.

I feel the same way and I just don't like those wheels. They're too busy for my taste, no matter what finish they have.

Better not be a forged vs cast wheel.

It crossed my mind that perhaps they are made of a different (cheaper) material which hopefully doesn't mean they'll be heavier.

Actually was hoping the M2 got the base M4 18/19 lighter 824M wheels.

The only non-forged M wheels I've ever seen are for the OEM winter wheel/tires. I'd be shocked if the 930M are not forged.

I wish Orbit grey finish was an option, that would be my pick
