Are they not already fairly light, especially for an OEM, though?!

Light, just not lighter than the 763.

Well said on the 437M - definitely agree on what you've mentioned. Also agree with what you've mentioned on the 763s, I don't think they really fit the car as well but as they're more rare that's made them more desirable. Those 763s aren't cheap either too!

Honestly, 437m is one of the best modern day factory wheels in the same regard M parallels were in their day. If they weren't so common, they'd be more appreciated. All my opinion, of course.

Agreed on this too! To add further - I think the 437M only look good in this jet black finish as per the below:

For me I don't think they work that well in the Ferric Grey - even worse in when they're been coated solid black!

Oh man, just the opposite for me, not too big on black wheels with bright accents, but the Ferric wheels look brilliant because that harsh transition isn't there. But, of course, the Ferric wheels look thicker because the spokes aren't hidden as much by shadow.

Have 666m so I might be biased and I love the look but I wish all my enemies to have these wheels cus cleaning them is a fucking nightmare.

I hear you, I have had some terrible wheels to clean like that in the past, and I'll never go back. Even with my 437's I'm looking for different brake pads.

I think the ferric's fit the more luxury oriented cars they came with pretty well. Not for me, given I like the sportier side of my M2

Oh my word, that colour is perfection.

Do you mind sharing what colour you had them painted/powdercoated ?

Thanks, I really love the color too. I believe I’m the third owner of the wheels, according to the original owner’s fs thread the finish is “Custom Powder Coat in Ultra-Black Chrome and Clear Coat by PowderCoatDase NY.“ Hope this helps.

Thank you! I haven't gotten a chance to take more pics, will take some more and post after I lower it.

Bought a second set of 763s rims with cup2.
As a result: one set of 763s is with Michelin Super Sport for rainy days + second set of 763 with Michelin Cup2 for dry summer days

If I had your money I'd burn mine. Here I am hoping for a nice used set lol

I wish I could have a set of 763s as beaters.

Also, something about those M Performance wheel covers with the 763s peeking out of them...
