I have an opportunity to purchase a set of slightly used 20" BBS LM's in Silver.
I currently own a 19" set of BBS LM's in Silver installed on the car for maybe 1 month now.
What would you do if you were in my place:
Option 1
Buy the 20" LM's and sell the 19" LMs. End of story.
Option 2
Pass on the 20" and keep the 19" LMs. I also have an opportunity to purchase an almost new set of 20" Radenergie R10's. The price of the of the R10's would be the difference I have to pay to upgrade from 19" to 20" LMs. I just about get 2 sets of wheels for the price of the 1 set of 20" LMs.
Your thoughts?

2) seek help, I wonder if Dr Drew takes wheel addicts
3) Keep the 19 LM's
4) Get the 20 R10's and swap back and forth when you get bored with what you are running
And we KNOW you are going to get bored...

Ok I got it, like that one dude who was selling two different wheel models for each side of the car, run the 19'' LMs on one side and the 20'' Rad's on the other. Problem solved.
Dude where do you store all of these wheels haha. I have to use my parent's garage for mine and they're not the happiest campers about it.

Hahahaha, Ross has come up with a good idea it seems.
But yeah, I would not know where to keep all the parts if I were in his "shoes"
Thus far, I have pretty much chucked all the OEM parts, lol.
