763M's-- matte black or gold only?

Confused (possibly by peeps powder coating their wheels):

Are the 19" (NOT the 20" rear) 763M's available in silver or titanium? Or is it only the matte black or gold?

TIA.

R.

dont think so, powder coating is the only option....or richland forged wheels (763m copy forged wheels available in the color you want for cheaper than bmw wheels))

Thanks-- I had the RF-GT4's on my short list, but unfortunately, the rear offset seems to be non-optimal. If they had it more like an ET40, I'd be all over them. But from what I've read, RF isn't interested in making a "M2C-Specific" fitment. I could have them machined down to reduce the rear poke, but I don't want to go down that particular rabbit hole.

Thanks-- I was afraid of that. The Minister of War and Finance would be..... displeased..... if I spent all the money on the wheels, and then promptly had them repainted.

That would *not* be in the interest of marital harmony.

I guess 763M's are off the table.

You are right, already email them for a better rear offset and the answer is NO

That's the reason i still have my oem 788m

Looks like they just came out with an 19x10.5 et44 rear (now if they would only do something like a 19x9.5 et32 front...). May want to check Richland again

Saw that. But ordered the Apex's as the wife said the RF look like stick men.

Once seen, cannot be unseen!

Same here.
I hate the look of wheels sticking out, and I'm not willing to go more than 3-4mm poke on the outside.
+25 w/ 9.5" front would be more than 10mm sticking out...

Probably the only reason why I'm not considering RF.
Wheels look great though.

Those are nice!! I'm debating a silver finish or a gunmetal / dark grey finish as well.

If going for a color change, should these be painted or powdercoated?
