A follow up

Hi
I recently offered a set of 313 staggered rims to someone on the for sale section ( wanted ) O.P.
Has not followed up ( no worries)
On the back of that , I’ve had another member interested
He’s asked a question that I can’t answer myself.
Hopefully someone here will shed some light…. The question was …. You don’t see many e89 with the 313 rims , is there a reason? … I have no idea if they were rarely used, or if there is a reason, hopefully someone here can help both of us with this question
Thanks

It does look more “aftermarket” than any of the other wheels offered on the E89 as OEM, which may put some people off specifying them. If you like a minimalist wheel with low profile rubber, then it's a fine choice.

Maybe because they look quite similar to the 326, but with less 'dish', and were more popular on the E9x series?

They were an option from the factory on the E89, and probably a very expensive option, knowing BMW.

That’s something learned, so not a bad day .
Hope the forum member who asked me the question has a look here as I’ve suggested. Thanks again
