Did you just pick this up from Dreyer & Reinbold? I think I saw your car Saturday on the lot. Congrats!

Haha yes! I picked it up Monday. However, it arrived on Friday. So yes it was sitting there this weekend. Thanks!

Only set I've seen in this thread is within the first couple pages, think it was a dealership car

Nope….my order is w/the 825m bicolor wheels also. Super excited! I think the 826m wheels (both black and bicolor) get "lost" and don't show the beautiful details of the wheel design like the 825m bicolors.

Went with brushed clear gloss (which i think looks better than the frozen stone clear imo) and also swapped brake pads. So far dust seems very limited and squeaking is also significantly less. Only ~100 miles in but much happier with this set up.

Last 3 pics are after ~100 miles

What pads did you go with? I have DFC 3000 ceramic pads on front and Centric on rear. Also I have 826 Black wheels and am now looking at BC Forged in a color other than black and not as detailed spokes....lol

Awesome! Okay silly question, but, did you just screenshot that pic of your car from My BMW recently? The reason I ask is…..my picture shows wheels that look like the 825m orbit gray wheels (even though I have bicolor selected). In other words….the inside "spokes" appear dark, but the outer ring is light alloy colored. I first freaked out about this when the configurator suddenly stopped displaying the 825m bicolor the way it used to look and it started showing it as if it was orbit gray (if that makes sense). Then the same thing happened on my own My BMW page. When I wrote about it on this forum, everyone assured me it was just a glitch in the configurator…..and to have no worries….my wheels would arrive looking the way they were supposed to.

But now that you have just shown me a recent picture in My BMW, and your 825m bicolor wheels look CORRECT…..now I'm panicked that it's not just a "glitch" in the configurator.

Call the Genius and ask what it shows for your build. Don't stress over the mygarage page, it has definitely been wrong in the past.

Currently running 10 mm spacers in the front and 5mm in the rear . Throwing on a set of 15 mm all around . I feel like the tire still hiding in the fender. Also going to raise rear a little .
