19's or 20's

What do you guys think i should go with 19's or 20's for a 335i coupe? Here are my choices 19 inch iforged essens in gold or 20 inch iforged eqiups. These are gonna go on a white 335i coupe with coral red interior? Performance wise would it make a big diferrence?

19's are plenty big for the coupe, looks better than 20's IMO. Go with the Au rims, looks killer on white.

if your choices were between gold 20" rims and the rims from your kids tricycle, i'd tell you to go with the tricycle wheels. avoid gold rims at all costs. they dont look good, too trendy (think 3 spoke rims from mid-90's) and gaudy. they're a step worse than chrome and that's really saying something imo.

I would go with the 20s; front - 8.5x20; rear - 10x20. I know some of the folks don't like the look but you ask me and I say they will look great...if for no other reason than you like them. The same folks that don't like chrome don't like your choice, either. Just let them drool when you go for it
