Ok, so we all know now that the black wheels on the M2C are hardly black (more of a dark gun metal) and basically look like brake dust on the bi-color wheels. I'm planning to have mine painted to the same black as the 763M black wheels, but was hoping someone here might be good at photoshop. Anyone able to take the picture below (showing the black from the 763Ms) and put that same black on the SOM M2C picture that's next to it (not changing the wheel type, just that color)? Thanks!

I tried. Not easy because of the brakes, had to erase everything between the spokes. And I can't really match the spoke color to the barrels. But should give you a basic idea of how it'd look.

Wow, You are awesome, thank you! That looks really good and you did a great job. Those wheels will look really good like that. I wish BMW would have offered that color as an actual 'black' wheel.

Nothing a little paint/powder coat can't fix

Wow that looks sharp! That's what I'm having done on my SOM. The guy above did a great job on the photoshop of the SOM picture I had. I think it's going to look great with the orange.

A member here (Harrison kayy) painted his 788 silver, and I think it looks amazing. Black is too played out nowadays, IMO, and a silver on the SOM would look awesome.

I too think the silver is a huge upgrade, but to me, it's important the specific color of silver they are painted, as his remind me a lot of the Mines Skyline R34 BBS-MG (magnesium) wheels, which are some of my favorite wheels on earth.

I agree with some of the posters here... I think "black" wheels are pretty played out in 2020

I honestly think the way the stock looks, it's pretty awesome as is:

I'm not sure what played out means, as you can't get black on these cars. Sure the bi-color looks nice, but the black they offer isn't black on the 788s...it just looks like the wheels are dirty. To each his own, but black wheels certainly aren't 'played out', as it's about the individual pairing with the car, not someone trying to follow a fad.
