They are Enza Vatore "blx-01" wheels. A member here used to distribute them and was selling sets for a very low price. That way I could powder coat them (satin black) and still spend less than most wheels. Since it's a lease I wanted something reasonable and something I wouldn't cry over if they get a few nicks. A few members grabbed them, I really like the design and they seem well made

But thanks, I'll definitely be posting photos once I mount them. Think they will go well with my other mods

Quite low, lost the air in the bellows of the rear air suspension on my F11.

Excuse for the dirty car, looks much better now after a wash!

Wait a minute, are you running 255/40-R20? Isn't it too tall for F10/11? I thought it should be something like 245 or 255/35-R20?

Yes that is all correct!

I like the oversized tires since it helps to fill the wheel gaps on my F11 with stock M Sport suspension.

The rear is a tight fit with ET22, but no rubbing (1/10" of clearance).

Wow, good to know that it fits. You're also getting 4.6% saving off your odometer reading (unless you calibrated for bigger tires)...

No coding done, so that's a bonus!

The speedo is also much closer to perfect (maybe reads 1% lower than actual speed now).

Prowling in the dark rain


One thing I love about the wheel color is at night against the JetBlack paint the wheels somewhat shimmer/glows and it really catches your eye. I get a lot of double takes driving around


Another thing I love is the way Chemical Guy's ButterWet Wax and BlackLight beads during rain and washes

So this is with 10mm spacers on your BBS wheels?
