Niche targa m1-30

I am driving a 2011 550 bmw m-sport. Should I get these rims and should I get 19" (which I currently have) or move up to 20" rims. I know that bigger rims sacrifice the ride quality but how much?

Get some good tires and you won't know the difference.

Are these the same as the same quality as Avant Guards? They look like the 510 wheel.

I have the 19" Avante Garde 510s (gun metal finish) on a very similar looking car (mine is a 535i though). Is that sophisto grey ii?

I dont think 20's are too big for F10. A lot of people here, including myself have 21's. Plus I think tires in size 20 are cheaper than 19s?

Wait...is this a fact? I thought the tires always got more expensive as the rims got bigger.

20s run cheaper
there is so much more options and selections which drives price down

That is correct. 20 inch tires are less expensive. I run the 19 inch M510s on my 550i and they look great. But the 20s are a great choice as well. With a nice tire you won't feel much of a ride difference. The Niche Targa and AG M510 wheels are built similarly.

If you want a quote on either or some more information on them shoot me a PM
