I agree, they all will look the goods.

Personally I'm an M5 e60 wheel fan but love the look of a set of miro's on a low e60.

Miros's always look great. If you can go with 20's they will look great. If not 19's still look good.

I would love to have 20's but my car is non-sport and I don't plan on lowering it and the 20's on my car will look like the car is hovering.

I've seen the Niche's in person and they do NOT look like that. Lot's of "open space" between the spokes. However, they're built by MHT Wheels and MHT is known for their excellent customer service. I had my problems with clear coat on my older pair of Niche wheels and they replaced them no questions asked. Would definitely buy from them again in the future.
Currently I have 20" Miro 111's on my 08 528i and am hard-pressed to find a better looking wheel. They're true to the BMW brand and styling, the rear concavity is gorgeous and if paired with a wide tire they're amazing. However, both the OEM M5 rims will always look great. Good job on choosing nice wheels to vote on.
My Vote: Miro 111's

Really they all look good. Is really on the machine we own and what really looks good on our eyes. IMO we have to enjoy what we have and what we can. Whatever you choose will be the best. can go wrong with that

For a street look, I would go with Miro or Targa. Any update on what did you choose?
