Well I thought I could live with the stock 19" M wheels I have, but I want to upgrade to a set of 20" staggered wheels for my 550 X drive to give it a better stance and look. I have to make sure my wheel and tires are with spec for the OD and I don't want to cause issues with the Xdrive. I was hoping for 285 in the rear.

The issue is my colour of car with the colour of
Wheels. I know black wheels is something I do not want.

Here what I had in mind
20"
Niche Targa
Niche Misano
Both those wheels either come in silver or anthracite.

Or Vossen wheels:
CV4 maybe polished ? Instead of the matte graphite
CV5 has very similar look to my OEM wheels.

Any ideas guys what would look best?

I'd go with the CV5's in silver. I prefer contrasting wheels, and particularly those that resemble a factory or OEM+ appearance.

I'd prefer the Niche Targa in the anthracite color (just don't do black color rims for dark cars)

This is really a tough one. I have carbon black and went silver, but a part of me wants them a little darker, not too dark. I previously had a set of wheels a couple shades darker than titanium and they were too dark. There must be a middle ground. Here is my car with the almost OEM looking 20" wheel, and another car I saw on the forum that must've powercoated their stock rims which I really liked.
