TOP! Airride suspension & Vossen ML-R2 Alus on BMW i8

Who from time to time James "Lord" McDonnell followed on Instagram He will discover more or less extreme vehicles at regular intervals as we already do with one completely gold foiled BMW M5 F10 or one matt black i8 on Vossen LC-104 Alu's have shown. And this i8 that is already on VPS-301 rims stood, now comes again into the conversation. And again, the hybrid is completely transformed and certainly certainly unique in this combination. Let's start with the wheelset. McDonnell decided this time for the Vossen Forged ML-R2 rim we from the AH Exclusive Parts Audi Q2 know. But while the Q2 rolls on 20 inches, the i8 has a huge 22 inches.

The ultra-light forged rim comes with a brushed finish and highly polished rim cushions (Polished with Brushed Face Light Smoke) and is the i8 extremely well. At the front are the exact dimensions 22 × 9 inches and behind you missed the Munich Coupe 22 × 10,5 inch formats. And thus the i8 not as roader indulging his existence of course had to be a huge lowering. Nothing else came into consideration here than an Airride air suspension (by Accuair) that pushes the i8 down to the last millimeter in the direction of the road at the push of a button and partially disappears the new wheelset in the wheel arch. The absolute highlight of the new modifications is definitely the dreamlike full wrap of the i8.

The foiling is a radiant lilametallic that turns into a dark black depending on the light exposure. In combination with the eye-catching rims as well as the brutal lowering and completely darkened windows, this copy is in our opinion one of the most successful conversions that we have seen based on an i8. We do not currently have any more details about the i8 from James “Lord” McDonnell. If we receive timely information on further changes not mentioned so far, there will of course be an update for this report.
