128s or 172s for me. But more on 128s. I suggest starting a pole, and setting a date for yourself to which day it ends, then you'll see what the clear general preference is.

Alright, I did it! After much debate I ordered the 128 style wheels today. They should be at the dealership by Tuesday. That guy Garry at Newport BMW is fantastic to deal with. I don't have to wait to have them shipped since I live about 30 mins from there. Thanks everyone for your input. I'll be sure to post some pics when they are on.

my vote goes to the 166s for looks, but 128s is much easier to clean. ha
