    M Tech 2 Wheel Clarification

    Have a genuine M Tech 2, S770 white on lotus white, 1992 convertible I'm in the process of restoring and a little confused on what wheels it should have. It came with 14x6 gold basketweaves which I was going to have refinished in white, which I thought was OEM. However, recently read that my car should have 7Jx15 E24 basketweaves. I only see these wheels available in silver from BMW, unless I'm reading realoem incorrectly. Any definitive direction on what wheels an S770 car should have, and in what color? As always, thanks in advance.

    It should have 14x6.5" white centered basketweaves since it's an S770 M tech appearance package car. These only came "triple white" and "triple black"...paint, interior and wheels. The S771 M tech lux package cars (red, silver, blue) are the ones that came with the 15x7 euroweaves.
