For this BMW 750iL xDrive, R1 Motorsport added a set of ADV15 Track Function CS Series three-piece forged wheels

For the most part, if you can get over the large kidney grilles drama that’s been going on for the last year, the mid life cycle refreshed BMW 7 Series looks really good. Yes, even we think the grilles are too large, but the car epitomizes what a luxury flagship sedan should look like. When you add a striking Donington Gray Metallic finish, a set of ADV.1 Wheels, a lowering and a set of ///M yellow-painted brake calipers, then you get a true stunner. In turn, this isn’t your regular 7 Series – if there ever was such a thing.

This particular BMW 750iL xDrive comes powered by a 4.4 liter BMW TwinPower Turbo engine. Delivering 530 horsepower and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque, this engine is mated to an 8-speed Steptronic ZF automatic transmission. In turn, this large luxury sedan can sprint from 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in 4.4 seconds. Yes, that’s close to the current-generation BMW M3 and BMW M4. And clearly, that can put things into perspective. However, the BMW 750iL xDrive was never envisioned to be thrashed on a racetrack, even though it handles quite well for such a large and opulent vehicle.

While its looks can definitely be considered as part of the best in the luxury sedan game, for some owners, adding a bit of personal flair is always a good idea. This particular Donington Gray Metallic BMW 750iL xDrive comes from R1 Motorsport, a California-based tuner of high-performance and luxury vehicles. For this build, the tuner went with a set of ADV15 Track Function CS Series wheels, a three-piece custom forged solution, giving this 7 Series a true stunner status.

These wheels are sized 22×9.5 in the front and 22×11 in the rear. Furthermore, they come with a Polished Aluminum with Gloss Clear finish combination for the wheel centers and lips, respectively. Finally, the wheels are finished with a 50/50 Exposed Hardware option, giving them a nice accentuating detail.
