No, I get that but I am speaking of why the designer even thought it was a good look despite it's functional design. Obviously the i3 and i8 will be coming with other wheel designs that are not "swirly" or "turbine" looking so they could have easily left out these designs in favor of the other wheels. Maybe I'm getting old...
