Hmm, I wonder whether they're actually functional or just for show. Also noticed original rims in

That exhaust outlets on the diffuser are remarkably symmetric - it doesn't look like they simply cut an opening - any more info on this thing?

pokerface · 07-08-2014, 03:50 PM

7 series wheels.. perhaps too much offset on that one

E92LNGCGY · 07-13-2014, 11:46 PM

The quads make the car look so much better. The big wheels go really well.

secret agent · 07-25-2014, 07:05 AM

Why is there such a huge gap between the wheels and the wheel arches??

Stratus650 · 07-25-2014, 07:07 AM

Beautiful, i just cant accept the front fascia of this car, it could've been better looking than this.

The Exhaust is not OEM. I think its Kelleners or some other German tuner that Abu Dhabi Motors are the dealer of, still fits perfectly i would say

Matt01 · 07-25-2014, 07:12 AM

The look if the x4m?

Matski · 07-25-2014, 07:29 AM

Sorry but the X4 M-sport front bumper is just about the worst piece of design BMW has rolled out, EVER.

It's not a bad looking car other than that, and as the OP shows with some decent rims on it, it looks even better.

SedateMe · 07-25-2014, 07:50 AM

I really really wanted to like the X4 when it came out but the Porsche Macan just takes the cake. All of it.

To each their own though

1230vani · 07-25-2014, 07:51 AM

Congrats, I like it. Exhaust on both sides is the only thing I thought it was missing when I saw it live. I know those wheels and they are huge, hope the roads where you are driving are silky smooth.

InTheNightKitchen · 07-25-2014, 07:53 AM

Fornicating CLEAN! Just needs drop, that gap is

ahmza15 · 07-25-2014, 07:56 AM

Yeah I mean it's nice but something about it reminds me of a Pontiac Aztec or the hideous bmw gt model loll

Second that.

skunkd · 07-25-2014, 08:21 AM

Those wheels look like shit on it. Never liked them to begin with on any BMW. Also shoulda gone with a bigger tire, The wheel gap is retarded.

[DIM3] · 07-25-2014, 08:21 AM

Anyone have any info on the wheel setup?

starbai · 07-25-2014, 08:22 AM

hmmm... okay okay definitely a step in the right direction here.

The problem is the whole profile of the original wheel/tire package is just too small for the vehicle. It just doesn't have that beefy look. I think it needs thicker tires ON THESE WHEELS to fill out the wheel wells a bit. Not monster truck stuff, but at least I'd say something like a 50 series tire... and then to ensure it doesn't have some kidna jacked up monster truck look, maybe an inch or so drop. no slamming, no hella flush, just enough to bring it back into proportion.

I think this is one of the biggest reasons the production version was such a let down from the Concept for me.

I wish I could find the pics, but someone did this concept on an X1... and it totally transformed the look from being a puny tall wagon, to something that seems like an actual SUV. (even though its not) just had the right stance/proportion.

someone will do it some day.

Needs Tint big time !!

e92proper · 07-25-2014, 09:01 AM

I don't understand this model....this thing looks terrible IMO. And honestly it looks when I look at the lines of this car....this is what makes me unable to accept the 4 series cars in general.

zpower · 07-25-2014, 09:20 AM

I'm not a big fan of 335i GT but even that looks better then this ugly piece of crap.
