Any Real-World Pics of Non-Black 437M Wheels
I am torn on the 437M wheels for my new M4 build, and it is surprisingly hard to find a real-word pic of them in the silver (not black) color. Does anyone have any that they can post? Here is the official BMW configurator shot, but we all know they will look different in a real world shot. Thanks in advance!

All you have to do is input "M4 silver 437m wheels" into the Google search bar. I found dozens of images. I would get the dark grey because that is just my preference, but with black, I would probably go with the silver as well.
Also see this Black F80 M3 with the silver wheels, I know it's not the 437m, but the color is there for comparison: http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1356345 Last edited by StealthFish; 02-22-2017 at 12:25 PM.. |

Black or Silver
Just my opinion, and certainly falls under the category of personal taste, but after many hours on the configurator and even more hours looking at pics on this site I reached a few conclusions about wheel choice:
The 19s looks better than the 20s (better style plus more concave), and I didn't want to spend the ZCP bucks anyway. So it's 19s for me. The black 19s look best on light colored cars with the CF roof. Wheels contrast with body color and they match the roof and the window trim. The silver 19s look best on sunroof cars and dark colors. Provides some contrast on dark body. Not a fan of 100% all black cars. So I ended up ordering 2018 YMB Coupe with CF roof, black interior with CF trim, and black 19s. Black and blue, baby. Love the pics of other folks cars with this spec, so I made it my own. |

I guess I'm in the minority, because I loved my silver 437ms on my AW M4. And I love my Satans (666ms) on my SO M3--even if I had the choice of silver Satans or the new black Satans, I would have chosen the silver Satans.

Its all personal preference. I say most F8X i come across are black. The more i see it, the more it is played out. Black looks mean and ready for business when it is cleaned and shiny on my AW but Im ready to swap it out for silver.
I never been a black wheel guy no matter what color of car I have so Im looking forward to the silvers. I guess asking for picture is so much easier than google it. |

I was in the same situation and decided on silver this timeZ. Previous F80s had black and looked damn good clean but found it to be a pain to clean and avoid swirls. Only thing I didn't try was to apply a ceramic coating... a little too far for my taste.

Good thing is even if you have buyer's remorse, like I did, you can easily find someone to trade with you, like I did LOL
I agree with above post that 437 black look better on lighter cars with CF roof.
