Wheel Fitment Question (19s or 20s)

I just purchased a 2017 540i and I'm looking to lower it and put some nice wheels on it. I'm still debating between 19s and 20s. I like the 19s because there are a lot more options but it seems like they may be a bit small for the car.

Is anyone running 19s on coilovers? If so can you drop some photos in the thread?

Is anyone running a 10.5 wide square setup? Or something similarly aggressive?

I have 9.5" in front with -1.8 camber on coilovers and there is basically no more space both inside and outside to fit wider wheels without poking out.

Any photos? What offset are you running on the 9.5 front?

This is 20x9.5 with 26 offset and 265/35/20 tires. My 19" set is not on the car right now and I don't have pics, but it fits as 19x9.5, 28 offset with 275/35/19.

Love the wheels man!!! I was looking at those as well. I'm leaning more toward Works but they're all 19s unless I go 2 piece which I don't want to do. Do you have an IG for your car? I'd love to see some more photos.

Unfortunately I don't have car pics on my IG, this is my first time posting pics online haha. I think work wheels would be sick and you'd probably be the first to do it on this car. I personally think 19s don't look that small since I prefer beefier tire setups anyway. I'm looking forward to seeing your new wheel choice, love Japanese wheels on euros!😎
