20" Wheels, Stock Suspension

Does anyone have pictures of 20" rims on stock suspension?
I assume 99% of people with 20's drop their car, so any before/after pics would be great, too.

I'm about to pull the trigger on some nice Advan rims but didn't plan on dropping the car for another few months or so.

Thanks!

You can pull of stock suspension with 20's but ideally the M3 just needs a nice subtle drop to really make it look perfect.

Not a clear pic of what it looked like with 20's before the drop.



After I had the Eibachs installed, I immediately regretted not lowering the car before.
