I went with 20's first and it made my car look good even with a stock oem kit on. Than I put the mtech on it it just made the car. I think putting the mtech on without 19's or 20's makes the car look very odd. You put an aggressive kit on your car and your wheels arent matching the kit and if you drive around for a few months like that ppl will think the same. My .02 definately wheels first

I say go with the 20's. I used to park my car in a garage in the city, and saw a 525i with an m-tech kit. It looks stock. Like any other 5er on the street. The wheels will set ur car apart from all the other 5 series out there.

I say do the wheels first they make the biggest impact on the cars apperance.
This is very true. Wheels before kit.

20'S I think are overkill and poor ride quality as well as prone to bending. Its for show-cars only in my opinion. Its just straight up impractical.
LOL at OEM wheels. Who would want to put M5 wheels on a non-M5, seriously? I'm glad I dumped those wheels
