I ordered a mineral grey 335i M Sport a couple weeks ago and requested the 441M ferric grey wheels, but the dealer order balked at the wheels without the M Sport Brakes. I'm not that interested in an extra $650 for brakes that I'm certain that I would never appreciate so I'm wondering, has anyone ordered the 441M wheels without the M Sport brakes? The dealer put in a special request, but no word yet.

As a side conversation, some opinions are that the ferric grey wheels don't look good with mineral grey. Should I just take the standard 400M wheels?

Hi,

I have the 441M wheels with MG actually I think it looks quite nice (but its always a personal opinion, I was also debating in the beginning about that..)

I don't have the M Sport brakes, the only thing you need is the M package (at least in germany)

Doesn't make much sense that it should be mandatory in the US...

Maybe its different between 4 series and 3 series...

the ferric grey is associated with the m sport brakes. both 441 and 442 are ferric grey and attached to m sport brakes.

In fact I had trouble ordering m sport brakes so i asked them to put in the 441 and it automatically added the m sport brakes.

My advice is to get the M-sport brakes... $650 is a drop in the bucket. I guarantee you will be happy you went with the M-sport brakes and the 441M

Yeah, there are several "drops in the bucket" I could add, but I look for value that I'll appreciate when I spend money like that.

Honest question, with a daily driver, what would I notice behind the wheel with the M-Sport brakes?

One downside, I'd have to get larger winter tire rims with the M-Sport brakes.
