What do you think? Nowadays I have 17" type 138 w/ RFT and I'm quite unhappy with them .. very heavy and not very nice for M-Sport E61. I'm thinking about BBS CK + non-RFT. Might be a big difference in performance/feeling.

Please post your experience if you have similar wheels - is it a big difference in terms of weight and overall handling?

Those BBSs may also be very suitable for real world (read potholes and curbs etc) use - do bear that in mind.
All that said they look good!

In general the larger the wheel/tire the heavier it is - if you think 17s are heavy wait until you compare them to 20s.

I give my car to my wife often so 19"s are not practical even though I love 167's and 166's on E61. Plus they cost at least twice as much. Type m184 is very good too! But also they are about almost twice as much. I thought these BBS would be good as they can stand a lot, meaning potholes and harsh riding.
