One of the worst colors ever
I love blue but not this shade, especially on top performance version of the car.

Personally I think the bi-color wheel trend is worse than the all black wheel trend. Just go back to real silver wheels please.

This also seals the deal that ZB is a nope for me. I'm liking the squareness of the M2 more and more, but the color just doesn't work on it. I'll be boring and spec white with the carbon roof.

This car will look so much better if wheel fitment was fixed. The factory offsets seem to be way too conservative. Also these wheels are better styled for SUV than a sports car.
Needs some decent silver wheels, spacers, and a drop.

They always are. The only car that comes with ideal offsets from the factory is the 992 GT3. Even the regular 911 offsets are way too conservative.

Gotta admit they look nice in bicolor. Was never a fan of the 825m (very similar in style to the 930m) in bicolor but the way the contrasting is done on the 930m wheels is more visually appealing to me. My current build is Brooklyn grey w/ gloss black 930m. Would love to see real pics of Brooklyn grey with the bicolor 930m

Is this the first car we're seeing without a front plate? It's interesting that there is really no proper mounting location even for the euro style ones.

The G87 at The Performance Center last Saturday did not have a front tag on it.

Is the 930M just a different paint job/finish on an 825M?

Though I'm generally personally all about black wheels, we should have been shown these against Toronto Red instead of ZB.

I think I would actually PREFER the newer M3/M4 grill on this one.

Did I read somewhere that these stripes on the door panels were lights and not in the material? I'm not sure I like this look.

Ugliest colour for a car that's supposed to be aggressive… specially for a car with a design that is only made worse by such a colour

Is it just me, or does the wheel gap seem to be larger than it was on the F87 M2C, especially in the front? Thing definitely looks like it needs to be lowered, whereas I didn't feel that was the case on the F87.

I looked at them both closely and they are a tad different at the end of the spokes. The 930 drops down from the big to small spoke where as the 925 has more of a groove with the two parts seeming to be at the same level.

Cool Front end

Do design schools not teach cohesion any more? It seems like one of those principals that will always be relevant.

Yeah you're right. Makes more sense now why it's an all new wheel number. Crazy that they'd create a new wheel with such a subtle difference though
