I don't hate it, but it is not for me.

For forged wheels the OEM 827M are a really good deal.
I don't love black wheels.

Not sure how much a good powder coat job costs but that would look like a really nice modern version of old school BBS wheels. Akin to the whole modern-retro design theme here. You may be onto something!

I know almost every damn M3/M4 owner has them (and for good reason) but I think the 826m looks damn good on this car. Would be nice to see them on one without the camo, I think these are bicolor.

You can pretty much get a new set for around $2800. Already looked into this.

Find me HD pics of them at that correct angles and decent lighting I will. I used the pics from BMW press release of the G80/2 to make these; none we bi-color.

The 825m looks much better in black than bicolor imo. The 826m looks better in bicolor but I'm not a big fan of bicolor wheels on a lighter car (I'm getting BG). And black on these loses the detail of the beautiful design. If I were to go with these, I'd get them in black since they're cheaper and maybe powder coat them in a frozen gray type of color.

Agreed. 826m are gorgeous in either color but I'd do bicolor to show off that design.

True, bicolor would be the way to go with the 826m. And I have to agree with Tag on the 827m, the design seems to compliment the G87's boxy look pretty nicely

Similar pricing. It'd be tough to choose…but black washes them out a bit so you're not getting much aesthetically so I'd lean 826.

Are these nuts/fasteners a CCB feature or on all cars? Once you see it you can't unsee it.

Edit: really thinking about pulling the trigger for the value of OEM forged but man those are rough to look at.

Ibassume you mean the silver ones that are making the rotors appear to be two piece rotors. If I am correct, does the car come with two piece rotors?

The 827M wheels were photoshopped onto the M2 from an M4 CSL which has a CCB with two-piece rotors. The rotors on the M2 are steel and look nothing like that.
