BBS LM Or Forgiato Maglia?

Hi everybody I have an 08 M3 Blk/Blk...Im looking at both of these wheels not sure which would look better. Gonna go with all black though and thinking a big lip would look clean...Not sure what sizes would be best 19's or 20's dont really wanna lower the car at...any input would be greatly appreciated..
Thank You

if you like the F-maglia's, you should also consider the interad tursimo's...

You can never go wrong with BBS LM. Beautiful on any car and resale is strong. I would probably get 19's if you are not going to lower the car. LM's are available in 19 x 9.5 / 19 x 11 which is a great fitment.

+1 on BBS. I just looked at the Forgiato site. Can't find any info on the weight of the wheels or whether they meet any of the recognized performance standards. That's a red flag for me.

that's like comparing apples with some fruit that nobody has ever heard of. gotta go with BBS on this one, but I'm a bigger fan of the LM-R than the LM for what it's worth.
