we're close, same color & interior choices but I selected Bi-Color M797 wheels w/performance tires non-run flat. Looked at Black wheels also but liked the bi-color bit more but was on the fence

Thundernight metallic, 838m wheels because of the cooling package, black leather with contrast stitching

To be honest the only option was leather vs not. I only decided on this car because of the purple so that would never change. The interior was black regardless. Sadly I don't get a wheel option with the cooling package. I decided on non-shadow line because of the fact I will have bi-colour wheels.

Still waiting for an allocation though
When you get your car, can you post pictures of the 893m wheels that come with the ZTK package

For sure. CA said I'll have an allocation either this or next month, so it's probably going to be a good bit before that happens.

If I end up ordering one, fully murdered out will be my choice. BSM over black with full Shadowline, blue contrast stitching with blue calipers. Bicolor style 893M would be the only shiny bits.

Thanks and 20% all around. The dealership did it for me so I'm not sure what type of film they used.

I ordered Brooklyn Grey and Cognac interior. However, I am wondering if I should have gotten Portimao Blue instead.

Both are great choice, but I vote for BG as long as you;re also getting the Cerium trim.

I actually went with shadowline. Grey is my favorite color, but that blue also looks tremendous. I'm gonna stick with BG. It'll probably be easier to keep clean.

Bg looks great with the Shadowline. My thought was the Cerium may, at least to a degree, tie the interior and exterior since the Ceru=ium is sort of bronze-ish and your interior is Cognac.

I'm having 2nd thoughts on the Brooklyn grey after watching some videos and seeing some more photos. I may end up regretting that color. Thinking of switching to BSM with the jet black wheels. I got my wife that same combo in a 2022 m340 and it's stunning - so I know I won't regret it.

Just curious to know what color combos others here went with…
Ordered mine in Portimao Blue with the shadowline package, and the Cognac sensatec interior because the leather is not perforated and can be slippery. Not worth the extra money IMO.

This is my first BMW and I'm a little confused.

I had ordered a car with 792M wheels and performance tire: 225 front and 255 rear. I ended up buying a dealer specced car in inventory with 792M wheels and 225 runflats all around.

Does this mean the car I bought has 19x8 rear wheels vs the car I specced which would have had 19x8.5 rear wheels? For some reason, I assumed all 792M wheels would be the same size.

Correct. If you got to the Build and Price tool you'll see that some of the wheel options are available with both A/S run-flats and Performance non-run-flats. The 791 and 792 are available with A/S Run-flat, Performance Run-flat, and Performance non-run-flats. Any A/S gives you the 8" square wheel setup and reduce top speed limiter. My car, sadly, was ordered with the A/S tires and 792's.

May I ask what the differences in top speed are?

I believe it's 155mph with Performance tires vs. 130mph with the A/S.

Thanks for the info.

Does anyone know if the suspension tuning is different from the factory for cars with different tire setups?

I'm trying to decide whether to stick with a square setup since that's how mine came or go to a staggered setup with wider tires in the back like most cars are specced. (using custom aftermarket wheels)

I just realized going through the order guide that with the 792 style with Performance non-RFT's you get 245's Front and 255's rear same as you would with the ZTK with the 893M.

I am not sure if its a mistake on the guide or if its actually true since both the order guide and the pricing guide confirm the 245's in the Front for the 792 with Performance non RFT
