I wonder if that wheel design cools the brakes. Looks like it my scoop air to pass across the brakes. That would be novel and cure the hated brake dust all Bimmers seem to collect on the wheels.

The Autoweek article calls it the "Exelero" and claims it is indeed named to promote Fulda's newly released Carat Exelero tire.

I think BMW owns Rolls-Royce now, no?
I had a dream last night that I stole someone's Maybach and was having great fun playing around with the LCD moonroof with the variable tint feature. Kind of odd.
