New wheels for this BMW i8 from the rim manufacturer HRE Performance Wheels. The owner of this BMW i8 with the set of HRE RS102 alloy wheels in 22 inch, which was built by the tuning company Wheels Boutique, has chosen a significantly more elegant alternative to the standard wheel. The car looks in my eyes as elegant as the BMW I8 in Chrystal White with Forgiato 22 inch rims. We already know a few technical details about this wheel set and about the other modifications to the car. What we have learned we have listed below for you in a small summary. Unfortunately, we have only received the pictures and an extremely short "short version" from Wheels Boutique so that we cannot list all the details yet, sorry for that.

These are the previously known data for BMW i8:

  • HRE RS102 alloy wheels in 9 × 22 inches and 10,5 x 22 inches, painted blue / white
  • unknown sports springs installed for lowering by about 20mm

A few details about the BMW i8:

  • Plug-in hybrid system (turbodriven cylinder BMW Twinpower Turbo petrol engine and BMW eDrive technology in the form of an electric drive system)
  • The 1,5 liter internal combustion engine has 170 kW / 231 hp and drives the rear wheels
  • The electric drive that drives the front wheels has 96 kW / 131 PS
  • fully electric range up to 35 km (22 miles) and a top speed of 120 km / h (75 mph)

Certainly, new information and certainly new pictures and videos will soon be online. As soon as this is the case, we will of course put it online and inform you about it.
