If you want similar style to your 963M wait for BBS FI-R Evo in early 2024 Should be lighter than the R101LW's and made from 7075 alloy.

If not, Brushed Dark Clear would look better.

They have promised these for like 2 years now. I wanted the EVOs first and they STILL can't promise a delivery date. I'm over them. LOL

I have the brushed dark clear and love them. I have also been told many times that the FI-R EVOs would be out by now. They just keep pushing back the dates on those

Check out @jeff.m3 on instagram. He has atlantis blue sitting on 20/21 P101SC in brushed dark clear. Looks amazing on his car.

Everyone is probably going to hate me for this, but your car would look so awesome on satin black wheels. Your insane blue color would pop more, and so would the gold calipers you have.

Aside from that, whatever you choose your car is going to look insane. It always does.

My vote with your options is brushed dark clear. Although I like the P104SC instead of the R101LW.

As for the FI-R Evos, I was really considering those too. Would love to see them on your car before I drop $10k+. I'll probably end up with Vossen NF11s.

Clearly I was on another planet. LOL. 21's in the rear are great when you don't deal with NYC roads. I'm not the fortunate. hah

Ahhh true true. 305/25 gives you a decent amount of side wall.

I’d go with the brushed dark clear. Here’s my R101LW on my f82 M4 in Moonstone Metallic/Opal White
