HOT - Sakhir Orange BMW F10 M5 with 710 whp on gloss black 21 inch Strasse SM5R Deep Concave Monoblock wheels with weight reduction
Looks with the power to back them up? That is definitely what we like to see here on BimmerBoost. This F10 M5 definitely has the looks department covered. Starting with that Sakhir Orange paint job this is not an M5 that is shying away from attention. Mix in 21 inch wheels from Strasse Forged and turning heads is not going to be this M5's problem.
As the Strasse Forged name implies the wheels are forged. 21 inch rims obviously are not small and they tend to be heavy. Guys who go for big rims often do not take into account the effect the rim will have on power to the wheels. Unsprung weight is a major area of concern. Strasse Forged uses an interesting process whereby they utilize weight reduction pocketing to try to keep the rim as strong and light as possible. Yes, you can have your cake and eat it too.
Here are the wheel specs:
SM5R Deep Concave Monoblock
-21×9.5 front / 21×11 rear
-Gloss Black
-Gloss Black Caps & Sakhir Orange Detail
-Weight Reduction Pocketing
The Sakhir Orange center caps are a nice way to tie the paint color to the rims. You will notice the calipers also are finished in Sakhir Orange. These little details make an appreciable difference keeping the theme going without any colors sticking out like a sore thumb.
The car is also obviously lowered and tinted. You will notice other details such as the black kidney grills are designed to reinforce the Black/Orange theme this F10 M5 has going for it.
Regarding the performance modifications the car has an exhaust system, tune, intake, and meth injection. We would like to see a dyno to back up the 710 wheel horsepower claim but everyone at this point is aware what the S63TU can put out when aggressively tuned.
Simply a great looking M5 with tasteful mods that has the power to back the looks up.

Love this color combo, wonder if the interior also has the matching sakhir orange leather treatment.
I assume it would probably have upgraded clutch packs if it's holding over 700whp.

Here you go:
Weight on the M5 wheels in 21x9.5 is 25 lbs and 21x11 is 28 lbs. Not bad for a big 21" wheel! Weights vary depending on vehicle application. We just finished a set of 21x12.5 for a Lamborghini Huracan that ended up being 26 lbs! We also work on ensuring that every wheel we manufacture is as light as possible without risking any structural integrity of the wheel.
