Amen to all the brothers wishing for a return to normalcy of providing decent polished silver options, as well as bronze. This pure black attack trend has to be thwarted at some point.

BMW has some of the best OEM wheel designs in the business, but they lose a lot of their potency when painted black because all you see is a big bulbous black glob.

Gold, bronze and anthracite options would be good welcome additions in my opinion.

OH I AGREE!! I was more posting the Superman effect.

I was happy my car did not have the black spoke option.

Maybe he’s fashioning himself after the famous Tom Clancy character.

I figured it would be Clark Kent.

What color calipers are you going with. Blue I presume?

I’m not sure…the order guide seems to indicate the shadowline package means calipers will be red. I don’t know if there’s a way to individually choose outside of that. And I’m not sure I really have a preference honestly. I thought for sure I’d want blue if I did have a choice, but I’m not minding the pics I’m seeing of blue cars with red calipers

Red is a nice contrast. I would go with red in most cases, except for Melbourne red where blue provides a better contrast.

Had blue on my Estoril 2 series; now have red on BSM 4. I like both. Nice to have a change, I guess. Plus the interior is red.
