I'll get the stock 19's off the bat, though I could be tempted to get some HRE's

I'll probably start out with the OEM 19s, then sell them to get one-piece forged, like RAC Monolites, when they are available in this fitment.

Dymags take the prize for low weight, but not the prettiest, IMO. Great for the track if you can afford them.

The Neez are almost as low in weight as the Dymag. Because the Neez is made of magnesium. Both are at about $1700-$2000/wheel.

Unless you're racing a few pounds on each wheel are not a big deal. Go with the looks you like. Some like deep dish, some not. Some like chrome or polished, some not. It's all pretty much personal preference. If you're picky, however, you'lll find some, like RAC, optimize the offset, width and offer superior construction for the particular model, and are just perfect.

Some ideas

These are a couple I like. Does depend on the weight a bit as well. I would allow some weight penalty but not a massive one. If not one of these then I'd just stick with the BMW 19s. Anyone know if the BMW 18s and 19s are both forged?
