M2C on 437Ms

M2CLBB437M · 11-08-2018, 02:12 PM

Anyone else running their M2C on 437Ms? Mine doesn’t arrive til next week - old school LBB on 437s so keen to see other M2Cs on the old wheels

Slaney · 11-08-2018, 04:23 PM

I've got a new set just waiting...HS M2C arrives in a few weeks once it gets on a ship! I'll post pics asap

Shekels · 11-09-2018, 04:20 AM

I'll be picking mine up this evening. I can take a couple of photos for you.

Yep...

Stunning! Clean and aggressive.

I think the front lip really makes the look. And side winglet flow with it well. The one piece front grille, only aesthetic flaw with M2C, is very well hidden by BSM.

I love the look of your car. I wouldn't mind spending a few more (a lot more...) to add hood, roof and trunk even if they're just subtle in the all black look.

437M is just right all by itself. But you will want to be special and stand out. Go look at BBS RI-D or a bespoke HRE.

Well, 20k to spend down the road. I'd do it, with a BSM M2C or CS/CSL Lol

Normally I find the 437 a hideous wheel. Actually put me off the original M2 along with the ugly grille. However, the GreatWhiteMobile really does look very good. Don’t know what you’ve done. Some sort of alchemy. Looks sensational.

Also, did you own a P1 at some stage? Not the McLaren one, the original and best P1.

While I do not feel the 437 is hideous, I certainly would not consider it great looking either. It's rather mundane imo. That said, I like the lighter weight, ease of cleaning and ability to see the M2C's massive brakes (US or optioning these RoW).

Agree on the original M2 grille... much prefer the new one.

^ GreatWhite looks nice though. I think the contrast and stance. Not sure if it's lowered.

M2CLBB437M · 11-09-2018, 01:11 PM

Looking great all. Can’t wait til my LBB arrived with 437s. They suit the car so well

Shirasport · 11-09-2018, 02:28 PM

On a LBB

CosmosMpower · 11-09-2018, 02:31 PM

Those wheels look "dated" on the M2C, they go well with the OG M2 but meh on the M2c.

Cheers Sean, she will be different in a few weeks

I think down the line I will add the roof and bonnet for sure.

I aspire to make mine the mirror image twin lol:

Putting on the snows on 437s, looking forward to seeing the calipers more!

nidfix · 11-10-2018, 03:08 PM

Mine will come next week. I traded my 788M black for 437M.
I spent hours watching cars with 788M (my dealer has 4 M2C, all with 788M) and it is definitely not my cup of tea. In my opinion 788M makes perfectly sense on a M240i which a mix of sport and luxury. On the M2C they are way too "polite".

I have to admit that the entire set up of M2C is for me more a process of elimination than anything else. I took LBB because I could not get MG. I took 437M because I did not like any of the others. It is a pity that BMW is so afraid that M2C steals customers to M4 that they do the best that they can to make the selection process painful.

plastus · 11-10-2018, 03:21 PM

I purchased a set of 437Ms for winter wheels. Mounted with a set of Kumho WinterCraft WP72 tires. I think I like these wheels better than the stock 788M; at least they're easier to clean.

StealYourFace · 11-10-2018, 06:18 PM

Those wheels look great, but as with the original, I think they look much better in the original silver a la m3
