513m’s are the best looking rims for the F-series.

OEM or aftermarket. Change my mind.

I'll admit the 513m's are very nice looking wheels, but for me they are borderline too open. Like, all you see is rotors and calipers. You'd better have M-Sport or M-Perf calipers to sport those wheels.

Having looked them up (since you didn't show a pix), I have to say I like the BBS LMs posted above much better.

I feel like the BBS and the 513 are great looking wheels. For OEM you can't go wrong with the 513m though.

Indeed they are, or close enough. Hence why I bought OZ Leggera HLTs...

What suspension setup??? Looks really nice.

As for the 513m - even with my M Perf brakes, they are a tad too open for me. Probably a joy to clean though!

Thanks! I'm sitting on cks coilovers. I believe it would be similar to kw v3's. One nice thing about the cks is having the rear dampening knobs in the wheel well for easy adjustment.

since being over the 666m craze
I am back to thinking the 437m's are the best looking OEM rims
513m is ok.. theyre 18s a bit small, open, lack any real wham-bam, and are the wrong color being all ferric grey imo

I couldn't disagree more....I think my 400M wheels look alright (they aren't the best looking)...I think the 704M's look the best on the 3er.
