Which wheels should I buy for my 335i Coupe?

I am ordering wheels in the next couple of days and need some opinions on which set of wheels I should buy. I have a Jet Black 335i Coupe and I blacked out the grill and almost everything else on my car. I want either to buy the new Savini wheels called Avarus AV1 in 20's with the black set up, OR the BBS CH in 19's and get them powder coated all black. I am having a hard time deciding, because I don't know whether I want to put 20's on my car or not.

I'd pick the BBS out of those two. I would stick with 19s over 20s though. Ride quality, wear and tear, fitment issues make 20 my max.

Personally, i'm trying to get my hands on some Volk TE37s in silver. I'm going for performance over style, so going with a really lightweight wheel makes the most sense for me. But in your case, those BBS's look really nice

Yeah, that's what I figured. I'm not sure if I want to spend that much on wheels though. I can get those Avarus wheels for around $1900with tires.

Ok, I think I am going with the Avarus wheels. Now I just need to find someone that would want to buy the wheels I have on my car now.

I was going to get the Avarus but I didn't want to have to deal with all the up keep that would come with them. Especially since I live in Houston where there are pot holes everywhere.
