What is your budget for the wheels alone? That would be a start.

If budget isn't an issue, go for forged wheels. Forged wheels are strong, light weight, and beautiful. The trend recently is concave, not step lip.

You can get ideas on which wheels under the "F10 / F11 5-Series Photos - Video - Media" section. MORR, HRE, Strasse Forged, iForged, BBS are some of the top brands for forged wheels.

You should top off the stance with a lowered suspension.

.... you say 'No budget', then BBS Individual, like RI-D would be a very nice one. Although it does not come in 20", but 19" would give you a better ride.

Style 303 which are very similar to the 19inch msport ones although these are from the 7 series range
Basically a 20inch equivalent
Assume they fit?
Look at the 7 series configurator online to see them
