Something Out of the ORDENary - BMW Z4M x Leon Hardiritt

Hey Everyone!

Just wanted to share pics of my Z4M on some new wheels, Leon Hardiritt Ordens. This wheel is relatively well known in the JDM scene but may be foreign in these parts. They're generally seen in bonkers wide/low offset specs with huge lips with very stretched tires, on absolutely slammed cars in the VIP and "stance" genres. They're really not known to be popular with smaller/sports cars but something told me the fat 5-spoke styling could work on the E85 ///M roadster and like that, my mind was made up. This wheel has been on my "must have" list since my old JDM wheel swap days, so when I saw the chance to jump on a clean set in native 5x120 PCD / 72.6 CB, I didn't hesitate!

The current specs are 18x8 ET19 w/7mm spacers w/235/40/18 and 18x9 ET19 w/8mm spacers w/265/35/18 tires, but I’m thinking about rebuilding with wider lips and fine-tuning the fitment. Always fun to bring a rare JDM twist to the BMW side of things. I’m stoked I took the leap into the unknown, I’m quite happy with the results!

They look great!! Always fun to see people trying new things!

Only downside for me personally is the chrome, but I know in the JDM scene chrome is really popular.

I like the depth.
I miss wheels with depth.
When I was a kid in the 60s deep dish was king.

Thanks! I was up in the air about the chrome initially, but happy enough with it on Interlagos being a darker color.

Appreciate the kind words, thanks Vanne! The centers are chrome, the lips are high polish aluminum. The look matte look might've been from some glare or whatever exactly was reflecting.

Voltex had to re-make my baseplates. They sent them over, but I'm yet to re-install.

Thanks!
It's kind of interesting how trends can go in circles. Deep lip isn't currently the in "thing" right now in all car circles, but it's alive and well in some.


On a side note, I just realized these wheels share some similarities with the OEM Z3M wheels:
