825M Bi-Color change in configurator?

GrahamSP · 03-01-2022, 05:42 PM

I was messing about on the configurator and it looks like the standard 18/19" option is gone and the 825M Bi-Color wheel has changed. When you toggle between the 825M Bi-Color and 825M Orbit Grey, the interior barrel of the wheel changes, that's it. Snap shot attached of the "new" 825M Bi-Color.

Can anyone confirm this? I usually mess around on the configurator every few days as I am waiting for an allocation, and today is when I noticed the change.

Pic #1 is Bi-Color, Pic#2 is Orbit Grey

If true, this infuriates me. I'm all set to put my order in (I'm up next for an allocation)….and I was all set to configure the original 825m bicolor wheels. I hate the orbit grey because of that exposed ring around the outside. Now, they both look like that!

I'm sure this is an error. Same issue on my end.

BMW configurator is known for issues. I would reach out to an CA and confirm if this is really true.

They are showing fewer wheels than when I ordered mine maybe its a stock issue & they don't have any left.

Probably a bug, the UK configurator shows it accurately

They have all sorts of disclaimers on the site.

I hope it's a glitch

I chose the 825m bicolor also; waiting for a May delivery. I never saw the correct rim load on the
configuration

If I don't get the wheels I ordered I'll ask that they get them so I can swap them out.

It's an agreement and I hope I get what was presented to me in the sales agreement

I don't think there is language for substitution of different rims

Now y'all got me a little concerned
