763Ms rolled into the vehicle's low interest financing is a sweet option, that way you get to hold on to more of your liquid cash to play around with, at a minor cost. But not at over $6,000+, even with PS2s inclusive.

You can find black 763Ms, for roughly $3,500, brand new, delivered and just swap the stock rubber and sensors.

Then voila; more cash left over for hookers and blow - hypothetical speaking, of course

I started my own spreadsheet to compare BMW wheels but I haven't started looking at the after market. Also by way of update, my dealer agreed to do it but wants $6750 for a set of 763s, which seems expensive and makes me think I should just be patient and see what I can find either 2nd hand or in the aftermarket
BC Forged in our spec 19x9.5/10.5 run between 19-22 pounds, which is pretty light in my opinion - their wheels are $3,500 with basically any finish that you want.

Again, OEM is great, but you'll always have your OEM wheels for October-April. My opinion, again, but nice to change it up.

I wanted a lighter wheel as well and something not everybody's running so I went with aftermarket wheels from Edelweiss. 17.2lbs for the fronts and 18.3lbs for the rears.

The 763 is a really nice wheel and OEM and wrapping it into the financing means you'll have extra cash to play with. But there are other options out there.

FWIW, I bundled several parts and accessories into my purchase / financing through BMW FS including the matte black 763M / PSC2 wheel set

Your dealer is most likely uninformed and/or lazy (especially since they would be making more money selling you extra stuff)

The only somewhat understandable argument I could see them making in your scenario is if the winter tires you want to mount are not BMW approved sizes

Your going to confuse your order. Buy the 763M and snow once you take delivery.
