that pic looked like 18, i bet they'd look decent in 19. A friend with an M3 has the 19's and we've toyed with the idea of just trying them on my car but never have actually done it.
Its too bad they aren't OEM because that'd be a good deal for some lightweight wheels. Even reps its not a bad deal, just always a bummer putting big heavy wheels on and losing some performance overall. Are you set on 19's?? If you are, just buy them, put them on and see what you think for a while. If it comes down to it, you could just pull them off and buy other 19's and swap the tires over. That way you'd probably only lose a few hundred overall. Also make sure they'll fit a 5 if you go through with it - the 3 has different offsets and the hub might actually be different too?
