IMHO, 19" will look fine. 20" looks a bit better but the mrs./girlfriend might compliant on the bumpy ride

if you have a so so mrs. driver like mine, you won't get the 20" too.
However, I will go for wider wheels, 9J front and 10J rear

A neighbor of mine who has a Fer* and a Lam* (damn this guy is rich), both cars have 19" wheels. So I think 19" will not be too bad.

True, 19" for F10, it would be 40 front and 35 rear. Not too bad for look I would say. The F10 brochure has the 19" 331 shown. Do they look good?
