Yes it does! It's a 520dA M Sport with 20" Breyton wheels.

I actually liked most the white F11 535dA in the lowest pic above in this discussion.
Clean one with OEM all.

The F11 M Sport rears are 10" and they really need 295 tires. The 275's didn't fit at all, way too narrow tires for such wide rims.
He also had already some problems with the (US type alu wheel) lacquer peeling off.

But also remember the M Sport is about 15 mm lower and the F11 with rear airsprings sets down when at rest.

Get quality wheels!

What brand are those wheels on the white F11? They look very similar to the M166 but more aggressive. Can we see a close up of this car?

The not M Sport F11 has original 20 inch BMW wheels and the M Sport has Breyton ones.
Read the whole topic, please.

I believe the Breytons are Race LS - hyper silver.

It is, 20"!

Anyone can go to the Breyton's site and choose from a selection of really good looking wheels.

Of what I have seen, the ET's are just as low as they can be, some say a 10 mm spacer front is possible.

And note that the 10" rear wheel need a minimun 285 tire with side protection or a 295!
In front the 8,5" wheel with a 245 tire needs also side protection tires.
