Yes, that’s right.

So get the rest up.

Please
Congrats. Will try my best. Raincouver has been living up to its name these couple of weeks.

This is why I would ensure that the wheel offsets are as per OEM and wouldn't fit spacers to my car. Others may think that that position is overly cautious.
I'm no engineer, but to me it depends on the size and application of the spacers. On the G20, most owners are fitting spacers 15mm or less, so the additional wear and tear on the wheel bearings is not significant.

People run spacers on the track for suspension geometry reasons. Porsche even fitted spacers on their track-ready 997 GT3 and GT3 RS as standard.

Anyway, don't want to turn this thread into a spacers thread. It's just personal preference at the end of the day.

Ultra clean! You can't go wrong with the OEM+ look. You've made a little go a long way, nice work! Oxide Grey is definitely a beautiful, deep color.

Nicely done! Oxide Grey looks classy on the G20 and shows off the lines of the car so well. The 795m wheels complete the OEM+ look.

Love it!
From the moment I saw these wheels when shown on launch I was smitten, this thread has me lusting even more & definitely, in my opinion, the right choice to ditch the black wheels.....although if I was sticking with 20s I probably run black in winter.

Long overdue Congratulations, the photos looks so sick and clean with the original black rims and the 795M 20" wheels. I see the fully optioned laser lights and black shadowline exterior trimmings. Very nice!

@projekt7, was this just the red Merino Leather, or full extended Merino Leather?

With the MP aero now installed, I've added a couple new photos to the first post. There are more on my IG.

Wish you could ditch that front plate but the car looks great.

Great looking ride, man! This just looks so, SO much better than the 4er. I'm thinking about writing a strongly worded letter to BMW about it

Almost two months after delivery, the car is much closer to the OEM+ vision that I've had since the day I placed the order.

Mods so far:
M Performance aero
M Performance 795M wheels
AC Schnitzer lowering springs
Future Classic wheel spacers
IND painted reflectors

More on IG @oxidized3. Thanks for looking!
