that by the way those 20/21 wheels have also been designed by the same experts who designed the car.

By the way, I just realized that the getbmwparts.com guys already have them for sale and at an even better price than in the UK.

No brother what I said was I totally get why people want different looking wheels. What I don’t get is why would they change the size of the wheels and in this case mostly revolving around M cars. When I owned a Mercedes Benz C450 it came stock with some pretty ugly 18 inch wheels. However it didn’t come stock with that size because it was best for the car they probably did it because of cost. So people were putting 19 inch and 20 inch wheels on that model all over the place and they worked great. However with the M cars they are looking for a performance and they experiment with every size. So when they are done I assume they go with whatever wheels perform the best. Of course I could be wrong. According to my wife I’m wrong often so there you go.
