Ok guys, it boils down to this. I currently have the BBS LM-R and want to upgrade to the FI. Don't get me wrong, I still LOVE my LM-R. And most of my friends say keep the LM-R. If you guys had the opportunity to pick one, which one will you setup would you go? I know it's not comparing apples to apples but for me it's more esthetic than a performance thing. But it doesn't hurt to have both esthetic and performance.

I photoshopped the wheels to show you guys some reference. If I was to get the FI, it would be the same color (titanium) finish.

LM-R - 20s - BEST wheels for our car, aggressive offset
FI - 19s - weight saving, exclusive, unique, strength

 

Without doubt would go with the FI. Wheel is absolutely stunning especially in the finish. Let me know if you need a quote. We also are an Authorized BBS Dealer as well!

 

LM-R's = AMAZING dont change would be a waste of money imo.

 

Love the LM-R (except for the stepped lip), but I have to say, the FI is in another league.

 

Fi for sure too many M3s with lmr

 

FI gets my vote they look spectacular...

 

Thanks for the votes... I decided to keep the LMR and save the money towards a supercharger!

 

Without a doubt FI. GL

 

Good call!

 

LM-Rs and LMs are just very classic style wheels for M3....
the FI are nice because they are seldom seen....
at the end of the day....good call especially if you plan on going SC...
which kits are you considering???...ESS??

 

fi for the win. fits the car color better in my eyes.

 

i voted lm-r but only because i love the third picture with the gunmetal centers

 

We've sold several sets of these. If they didn't take so long to get there would be a lot more of these floating around FI = Winsauce!

 

Prefer the LM-R myself.

 

Now that I am thinking, Since the Fi doesnt come in 20" for this car I would take 20" LMR's over 19" FI's
