Should I get 20 inch rim and Blue M brake?

Here in Ontario Canada for MY2018, 530e has M Perf Pkg that includes paddle shifter, Blue M brake and 759,20 inch individual wheels which totalled 3000 dollars. However, paddles and m brake can both be separately ordered as options for $500, $750 respectively.

Personally, I am not a huge fan of the 20 inch 759 ind. wheels. They look really bad for my taste. Even the stock 664M is not that great either. But they are free, so...

Question is, should I get 20 inch wheels because the bigger M brake? I watched a F80 review on youtube saying that if you get the 6 pistons ceramic on F80, you should get 20 inch 666M as well b/c the brake caliper is big, 20 inch will give it more clearance???

1. Is the blue M brake on G30 also 6 pistons? Can't really be sure. If so, should I get 20 inch b/c of that?

2. Also, should I get M brake? My current f32 with blue brake has annoying squeaking problem. I have to lube them twice a year. Just too much work for a daily car. I don't want to do that again for G30. So anyone opt for blue brake, do they squeak?


Thanks!!!!!!
