OEM 18" 260M Silver?

jonasaurus · 11-04-2010, 05:48 AM

Hi guys,
Wondering if anyone here in the UK has in the past few months taken delivery of a new M3 with the OEM 18" and can confirm they came in silver as opposed to anthracite previously.

Cheers

Mine was April built and Anthracite, if that helps

Thanks for that Creepy. From what the guys in the States are suggesting is that Sept build onwards thereabouts is silver.

Can't imagine why they would want to do that looks like a totally different wheel but not in a good way lol

Really sorry jonasaurus, I've just realised mine were 219M's and not 260's. so I've been talking rubbish. Unless the colour changes the part number.

The US definitely got silver. I was dissapointed but still like them.

I prob made a meal of the wheel codes myself lol
which ever code it is, im referring to the OEM 18s so im sure you're right

For those that may be interested got a definitive answer from the dealership. UK OEM 18s remain graphite grey and not the silver seen on US deliveries.
