New X6M Bought Today, Rims wrong

Hey everyone,

New to BMW here. Just purchased a 2012 X6M black with sakir orange interior and literally every option. Love it so far.

However the dealer claims that the rims on it are the:

21" Double Spoke 215 Black Wheel Set

I swear these have to be the ferric grey wheels or there is something wrong with how BMW labels this stuff.

Please tell me I am right and these are NOT the black wheels:



Thank you for any support you can provide me on this!

Where are the stock rims OP? Black or Ferric Gray... they should have had some reasoning as to why the car didn't have its stock rims. Did you ask?

The color is definitely FG though.

Those are definitely ferric grey. I've had two sets of black so I know. I heard they discontinued black in October off 2010 but I gt a new 2012 and my dealer was able to find four.
