BBS LM only come in 19's, they never came in 20's.. and Z3 guy, 20's don't necessarily mean bling and they aren't all heavy, if you want lightweight 20's they have to be 2 or 3 piece forged aluminum, 1 piece 20's are always usually cast and heavy yes, and everything locally that's 20 inches and above is of the "bling" variety unfortunately like you said... it's good to stick out from the crowd though, you should check out some of the SSR wheels they have in 20's, absolutely sick
Alex and Hongy, cars look great can you guys post some close ups of your wheels please, thanks

I dont know if I would trust Tire Racks description over BBS official site that lists them only going up to 19'
Over the years too I've never seen them in anything bigger than 19's either Posted via RS Mobile | |

1 piece, OZ Ultraleggra in blk - 23lbs
3 piece Radenergie in blk - 21lbs
I would have went lms too but they dont make 20s

There is 20" LMs, but depends on what car you are putting on, not necessarily good looking~

According to the BBSUSA, LMs do come in 20's, I know it because lots of M3 guys are rocking 20's, because 19's look so small on our cars.   | |

Spring time I run the KWv3 coilovers, GT spec camber plates, big sways and machined endlinks along with the 18's. In the winter, it's stock suspension and snow tires.
The car is so comfortable with stock suspension, and surprisingly fast as hell with the smaller, narrower and lighter wheels and tires.  | |

some fairly recent pics done by Matt Kwok ( Rikaro on RS) check out his awesome blog here Matt Kwok Photography Blog
this was before my ride height was dialed in I just threw my coilovers on and went to the shoot as is, I'm an inch lower tucking half tire all 4 corners now...
It's NOT vinyl btw, it's a satin white paint job I had done a few years ago, while before the matte black vinyl craze started, 
BTW if anybody needs some hookups on DPE Wheels, USA feel free to PM me, I got ye ole hookup for ya...
(also snuck in one of my fav pics from spring meet at very bottom, whoever the photographer is, thanks for pic)
