New to BMW with a 2017 F36 Lease. I really want to powder coat my wheels black which are 18' 400M but I've read so much conflicting information that it is not an issue and it is an issue when I turn it back in. Don't know what to believe. So I'm in the market for aftermarket black wheels that are quality and aren't going to affect my ride. M sport package with M suspension just not the M Sport brakes. Would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks.

I'm looking at VMR wheels right now and in 19" they are pretty reasonably priced. I'm sure 18"s would be a bit cheaper too and you could re-use your old tires if you're not wanting to move to a wider tire.

Technically you can be held liable for not turning it back in as it originally was. It probably wouldn't be worth the money or headache honestly. If you're leasing I would strongly consider just getting them plastidipped. I own my F30 and still dipped them professionally. They're gloss black and look powder coated. Lasts 2-3 years depending on how hard you wear them out. There's a guy in the valley that did mine for a good price. If you want the info shoot me a PM.

Look at the 405 style from the performance pack. They look great (especially on the m-sport package).
