19” 763s

437m are a close second to bbs LM-Rs

[M3OW!]

LMR all day

[gixxer_kidd]

LM-R for looks. Can you comment which setup feels the best in terms of handling and comfort?

[ntg44]

Just to correct: last wheel is 513M.

I say on stock height 763s

If dropped, 513s with 10mm spacers looks mean as F.

Yes, the Pics of the 519s aren't fair... because the rear wheels are my winter set up and I run 9" fronts on all four corners. Meaning, the rear wheels in these pics are 9x18 et 29...so they are ridiculously tucked. I do this so I can rotate my 255/40/18 blizzaks. I may run spacers on the rears next winter.

The general rule with any car with step lip wheels is that you need to lower it. It will completely change how the LM-R looks on your ride. Its good now but it would be amazing with a subtle drop.

Good point. Maybe that's what it is, because at least to me it's my least favorite of the bunch in those pics

I really can't provide a full report yet because I have only had the LM-Rs on my car for 2 days. I can tell you that coming from driving on dedicated snow tires for the last 5 months to driving on arguably the best DD tires ever made (Michelin PS4s 265/30/20s & 295/30/20s) is nothing short of amazing. That is a lot of "sticky" rubber on the road.

LM-Rs no question.

All the stock wheels make the F8X look like they're riding on bike tires viewed from the rear spacers or no spacers (and spacers suck).

I agree, pictures just don’t do these LM-Rs justice. They look much better in person...in 3D. I really like the stepped lips, the increased tire width and how the diamond black centers closely match the carbon fiber roof, diffuser and soon to be rear deck lid. They really transform the look of this car and....11” 295 Mich PS4s...all I can say is WOW!

Stock height = 437
Dropped = LMR

[JRV-F82-M4]

Added Pics of my current set up BBS FI-Rs and Silver 437s... but I don't know how to add items to the Poll.

[TTGTOVR4]

LMs! lol

[nbennettksu]

666 or the 18's

[ByeFelicia]

You put Fi-R's in the thread title but its not an option to vote on it :/
But I just saw your post and saw you saying you got em.

Good choice, its the best one out of all of them.

[cotmfk]

Didn't vote in the poll.

FI-R all the way.

[JRV-F82-M4]

I wish I new how to edit the poll to include more/new criteria like my FI-Rs

[Bluer2]

hold up man, you have 4 sets of rims?

[JustAnothaM4]

FI-Rs look best but, it needs to be lowered asap! Maybe add a front lip?

[JamesF80m3]

Jeez the money you have invested in rims is crazy lol

I have tried 6 set of wheels.
1) 19" Black 437s - Sold
2) 19" Silver 437s (winter set up)
3) 18" 519s - Sold
4) 19" Black 763s - Sold
5) 20" BBS LMRs - With Black Diamond face - Sold
6) 19" BBS FIRs - in Platinum Silver (summer set up)

Sold all but the Silver 437 (winter set up) and the BBS FI-Rs (summer set up).

Just my $0.02...The LMRs got the most compliments/looks and were my favorites but I was just too paranoid about daily driving 20" wheels with all the potholes in the area, so I sold them and purchased the forged 19" FI-Rs. Too bad the LMRs don't come in 19" for our cars (I prefer the stepped lip vs v-spokes).

Thanks for viewing/voting in my poll
