Fast forward to collection day. I saw the "black" wheels for the first time in person (because local dealerships only had the silver wheels on their M2C) and I knew instantly that I made the right choice. They are absolutely stunning and nowhere near "black". More like gunmetal or shadow chrome. In direct sunlight, the wheels look more silver than gunmetal and remind me of the factory 18" on the e46 M3, which I adored.
Long story short, I prefer the black wheel option, especially on HS. This car already has a blacked-out theme throughout, which is why I think the darker wheels are a better match.

I waffled back and forth between the wheel color options (and also the blue vs orange interior) for quite some time. The most frustrating part as you mentioned is the lack of options in stock at dealerships to take a look in person. I ended up ordering the black wheels since there are no other chrome elements on the car.
