My Enkei Raijin Winter Setup

I received 3 out of four wheel packages today but I was anxious to see how Enkei Raijin 18X8 in black color will look on my 228i M-sport.
I was going to go with gunmetal color and save a little but I really didn't like it with EBII color.
Tires are Continental 225/40 R18 DWS 06.
This setup weights 41.2lb and OEM setup is 45.4lb for 225/40 setup.
I will post more pictures after I've swapped all tires.

New Pictures

I received remaining wheel/tire package and managed to take a few pictures before it got too dark.
So far I like this combo and tires are quiet and not too soft.

I haven't driven more than 5 miles with them but car does feel more nimble and light.
Keep in mind that stock setup is staggered and rear ones weight 48.2lb each so Enkei setup is 7lb lighter (48.2lb - 41.2lb).

what size emblem did you use to replace the enkei symbol?

I am also considering enkei because of the MAT manufacturing technology.

lol but in all seriousness though, and to answer your question, OEM center caps fit just fine. See my set of Enkei wheels ( 18x8f & 18x8.5R)
