Frozen Gold 763M With What M2 Color?

For the longest time, I've been wanting a LBB with the 763M Frozen Gold thinking it would look similar to the M2 CS in Misano Blue, but it feels off for me now that I seen this pic:




I'm thinking if you go Frozen Gold you have to with Alpine White or BSM

I feel the same way - I LOVE those wheels in Gold and seriously considered them for my inbound LBB car but the LBB has a bit too much green/teal in it to work with the gold in my opinion. At least at the price point, if they were a free upgrade I might have done it.

I'm thinking 763M in a Satin Gray, there's some photos on the boards and I think that looks sharp with the LBB.

This is probably that same car, with different lighting it looks different. LBB just isn’t Blue enough.

to each his own, I have the LBB coming and I think it looks fantastic. The wheels also look different in shade/sun. Here's my wheels in two different lighting, one shade and one with sun. Click the forward arrow to see the sun pic.

Did not think they would look good on Sunset orange, but after a quick search...



Dang... that actually looks damn good

Just personal opinion but i feel the:

Gold 763m looks the best in this order:

BSM
HS
SO
LBB

and the black 763m looks best in this order:

LBB
HS
SO
BSM

Agree with BSM.

I did not like the Gold on the HS though, I preferred the black on HS

Pretty easy to make an argument for any color really, but BSM definitely looks the best. I like them on SO a lot personally as well w the carbon bits, but then I saw the Jason Comissa Supra/M2 CS video and he had an AW w them and I thought it looked incredible...

I have HS w matte blk 763s for the stealth factor. The gold certainly adds some serious BLING to this car. I'm usually moving too quickly to want that attention.

Subaru sold tons of blue cars with gold wheels. I'm still not completely convinced.

On black it's amazing, everything else is an acquired taste I guess.

Thought the Misano Blue and BSM were the obvious choices but man they look so good on all the colors. Sunset Orange with the frozen gold is really growing on me and slowly becoming my favorite.









Was always going to get the frozen gold wheels when I got my M2. Was set on LBB, now, I have no friggin clue what color I want. They all look good. As mentioned, leaning towards SO.

Gold wheels on a blue car remind me of an STI, as noted above. I like the look, but too ricey for me.

I think the frozen gold wheels look gaudy. Not my style but BSM is the only combo that I think looks OK.
