167 replicas come in 20"
The one wheel I would get in 20" possibly 21" If the offset was right for my xi and I had the money to burn, HRE P40's
or the Vip Mod. VR08's 
The 167 reps. in 20" look to big IMO.. and not as sporty!

I was actually thinking of swapping out my 20s and getting 15" gold 100 spoke daytons.

ride quality is almost identical. The profile sizes on 19"s is virtually the same , like mentioned earlier only diff is adding the 0.5 inch on each end.

My Ride: 1985 325e (sold it in 1996) // 2001 Z3 2.5 / White / Blk Lthr / 5-spd (wife's) // 04 530i / Metallic Blk / Beige Lthr / 6-spd / Logic7 / 19" 166 Michelin Pilot Sp
I went with 19s when I upgraded to the 166s. Although with my non-performance suspension, and though my 530 could easily have handled the 20s, I figured I'd need the extra opening in the well--as a psuedo-4x4--to traverse the monster potholes/ridges here in Minneapolis.
As e60insd said, those 166s look like they're 20s anyway.

here in the UK, having 20s is like a joke, the roads around Here london, south east even, are APPAULING, in fact my 20s i ahd before buckled in so many places in just 15 months, as the roads were just shambles, made worse by the utilities companies coming along and digging and making killer bumbs, even motorways are bad, with 1 foot pits on the M25.
STICK TO 19S Being the max. Unless maybe in the USA, were roads are smooth and have no corners, or so i heard........!
