2016 BMW i8 on Blaque Diamond BD-11 Wheels in Gloss Black Finish
The 2016 BMW i8 represents the future of performance and design — a visionary sports car that merges hybrid efficiency with exotic supercar looks. Its futuristic styling, lightweight carbon-fiber body, and advanced hybrid drivetrain make it one of the most revolutionary vehicles BMW has ever produced. Now, sitting on Blaque Diamond BD-11 wheels in Gloss Black, the i8 gains an even more dramatic and commanding presence, perfectly blending cutting-edge technology with bold aesthetics.
Innovation Meets Performance
The i8’s unique plug-in hybrid powertrain combines a 1.5-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder engine with an electric motor, delivering a combined 357 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque. This innovative setup propels the i8 from 0–60 mph in just 4.2 seconds, showcasing its ability to deliver thrilling acceleration while maintaining exceptional efficiency. The electric motor powers the front wheels, and the gasoline engine drives the rear, resulting in an intelligent all-wheel-drive system that provides both traction and agility.
When paired with Blaque Diamond BD-11 wheels, the i8’s futuristic personality is amplified. The BD-11’s lightweight rotary-forged construction enhances handling performance by reducing unsprung mass — allowing for sharper cornering, better braking, and a smoother ride. Every ounce saved translates into a more connected and responsive driving experience.
The BD-11: A Perfect Match for the i8
The Blaque Diamond BD-11 features a sleek, multi-spoke design that complements the i8’s flowing, aerodynamic lines. Each spoke extends outward with precision, emphasizing motion and energy — two qualities that define the i8’s dynamic silhouette. The Gloss Black finish adds a striking contrast to the car’s futuristic bodywork, enhancing its already aggressive stance and giving it an unmistakable, high-performance aesthetic.
The BD-11 design doesn’t just look good; it’s engineered to perform. The open-spoke pattern provides improved airflow to the brakes, maintaining consistent cooling during spirited driving. Combined with the i8’s advanced chassis and low center of gravity, the result is a driving experience that feels both refined and athletic.
Enhancing the Futuristic Aesthetic
Few vehicles turn heads like the BMW i8, and the addition of the BD-11 wheels takes that appeal to another level. The blacked-out wheels create a seamless visual flow with the car’s dramatic two-tone color schemes and scissor-style doors. From every angle, the BD-11s amplify the i8’s exotic appeal — giving it a presence worthy of its supercar status.
Whether it’s gliding through city streets or making a statement at a car meet, the BD-11-equipped i8 exudes sophistication and confidence. The Gloss Black finish adds depth and shadow to the design, accentuating the car’s bold curves and futuristic profile.
Precision Fitment and Performance Balance
As with every Blaque Diamond application, fitment precision is key. The BD-11 wheels are available in multiple diameters and offsets, allowing for a setup that perfectly complements the i8’s performance dynamics and visual stance. The result is a flush, performance-oriented look that enhances stability without sacrificing ride comfort.
The i8’s lightweight construction and aerodynamic efficiency pair beautifully with the BD-11’s rotary-forged technology — ensuring that every mile driven feels smooth, balanced, and responsive. The reduction in unsprung weight also contributes to improved energy efficiency, aligning perfectly with the i8’s eco-performance philosophy.
